@ParamedProf @paradub @AleckaMiles @BillLord2 @DrDavidNLong I have no idea where to even start…

@ParamedProf @RosalieBoyce @DrDavidNLong @DrLouReynolds @alan_eade @James_W_Pearce @agwalker01 Imagine Community Paramedics undertaking home health assessments, chronic disease home visits, patient care reporting direct back to GP’s with recommendations for Team Care Arrangements or GP Management Plans?!

It's a vision that comes with the emancipation of #paramedicine through #education, #research and independent #regulation that unlocks the potential of the professional practitioner. #health

@ParamedicPhD Question is, what specific knowledge, ground breaking and professional improvement has occurred as a result of the PhD outcome?

[Lambert Schuwirth @LSchuwirth]

@dymonite69 @DDougal007 💯, if students don’t see the relevance of what they’re doing & what’s assessed, behaviourism is the main driver, w/ negative consequences (eg cheating, etc). If it is intrinsically relevant we stand a better chance of students & faculty bring on the same page.

An interesting paradigm shift

[Australasian College of Paramedic Practitioners @ParamedicPract]

As paramedics move into the broader healthcare system, and away organisational Clinical Practice Guidelines, we need practice to accredited "standards".
Two such "standards" include
1. Prescribing https://t.co/SZsOummOpB
2. Clinical Care Standards https://t.co/gc9DxgBkqe

Dear healthcare industry,

Only 50% graduate paramedics begin a career with an Ambulance service.

Paramedics are leaving the profession early. 79% of paramedics are <50 years of age.

Please include paramedics in health workforce planning, policy, regulation and legislation

[Australasian College of Paramedic Practitioners @ParamedicPract]

"The evolution of the paramedic role over recent
years has changed dramatically, with an increased emphasis on
treating more patients in the community rather than conveying
to hospitals unnecessarily."

Moreover…

Furthermore…

…it is critical Paramedics know…

[Australasian College of Paramedic Practitioners @ParamedicPract]

#ParamedicPract believes that #Paramedics, with additional primary healthcare skills, can perform examinations, develop care plans, and work collaboratively. This article suggests that paramedics in #primarycare need direct supervision all the time.

The @RACGP supports mandatory vaccination for all healthcare workers, including in general practice. Let's be clear, this is an evidence-based science-led decision with ethical considerations on patient safety. If you're a healthcare worker, get vaccinated now #COVID19 #CovidVic
