Changes to support multiple new volunteering roles and opportunities. In addition, you will see buttons relating to:
- Lone Working Module:
Enter how long you’ll be in someone’s home and if not out, the host organisation is alerted.
- Mobile Equipment:
You can register if you carry lifesaving equipment including AEDs, bleed kits, naloxone for opioid reversal and epi-pens.
-Equipment Registry:
We also have increased our AED Registry to include bleed kits, water rescue and fire equipment.
This new update provides a new “Lone Working” module to improve volunteer and responder safety. This especially applies to our NHS Volunteer responders. If you’re going into someone’s house for example, simply set the duration of time you intend to be there for as you go in. At the end of that time, the system will check you have left. If you haven’t or don’t respond, a safeguarding process is started to ensure you are safe.

You can now indicate under the me tab if you are carrying:
An AED
Bleed / trauma kit
Naloxone
An Epipen.
This enables services to alert those who have this equipment to specific emergencies. This does not affect the normal cardiac response and the code of conduct should still be followed.
There is also a “I am physically fit and can lift” toggle. This means emergency and voluntary services can request help from those nearby in manual tasks such as lifting patients and deploying sandbags.
GoodSAM are excited to announce our new “Emergency Kit Register”!
In addition to mapping defibrillators, the platform now maps Bleed Kits, Water Rescue and Outdoor Fire Equipment. Please help us map these by taking a photograph of equipment that is in a fixed location and uploading it using the new kit icon located on the map.
Thank you again for being part of the GoodSAM community!

A very warm welcome to the 3/4million NHS Volunteers as part of the UK's response to the Covid-19 crisis.
GoodSAM is a platform used by emergency services worldwide, this is now being used to request help from Volunteers in the UK to carry out tasks for those isolated or in need as a result of the Coronavirus Crisis. Don't worry, as an NHS volunteer you will not be asked to go to a cardiac arrest unless you have specifically registered as a cardiac arrest responder.

- "Hide me" - To improve your privacy as a responder, you can now disappear from the maps of those around you, but still be alerted in emergencies. However, to encourage staying visible (and maintaining the GoodSAM community) if you go incognito, you can't see where others are either...
- "Locate me" - By using the "Locate me" function, we will generate an email showing exactly where we have you located. You can use the location accuracy slider to make location updates more accurate.
On-boarding more organisations.
