An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Paramedic to join the Outreach Paramedics team on our next humanitarian mission to Ukraine from 21st April-6th May.
We will be based in Dnipro and will visit six fire stations to train firefighters in prehospital emergency care.
British Paramedicine is 53 yrs old today.
This is Prof Douglas Chamberlain who created the role of Paramedic in the UK.

The Paramedic was born. ๐
Bruce is currently undergoing his FREC4 training, after successfully completing FREC3 training last month. As with all of our team members, Bruce is doing this in his own time, as an unpaid volunteer so that he is further able to assist us on future missions. Thank you๐ (3/3)
