Jeremy Limpens has spent close to twenty years working in health care as a senior manager, emergency and remote area nurse specialist, and paramedic across fifteen countries. This included the Arctic Circle, aboard merchant ships, and maximum-security prisons.

He also noticed an unwillingness and inability to do something different.
