The American Paramedic Association (APA) has announced the formation of the American College of Paramedics. The Observer welcomes the changed focus to place attention on the practitioner as an autonomous #health#professional.
Some observations. https://t.co/gvOYZKCmay
@Dr_Done_ Pretty sad to see. I completely disagree with this paramedic. A good paramedic doesn’t replace a good doctor.
I think a paramedic is fantastic at the initial care (core) and some extended care (Para Prac) until a Doctor provides continuous care (Realm of medicine)
Do you receive care from Paramedics for your condition? 🚑 In a new research project, the Department of Paramedicine aims to study the experiences of people with complex or chronic conditions and their encounters with Paramedics. https://t.co/Nlftnur9vN

@Aidan_Baron @GlenwrightCook @BillLord2 This.
But how about making it ‘tougher’ to get into a paramedicine degree in the first place? Would it get more high achievers that are passionate to improve standard? @Aidan_Baron @GlenwrightCook
A #MISSED dose of a Time Critical Medication can cause harm to #patients.
@AACE_org and @RCollEM have produced a poster specifically for #ambulance services.

🚑 The Association of Ambulance Chief Executives, NHS Providers and NHS Confederation have released a report outlining a new vision for NHS ambulance services.
This transformational vision is also applicable to other EMS and ambulance systems worldwide, including Australia!
The report highlights the strategic role ambulance services can play in coordinating and delivering urgent and emergency care. By investing in the workforce, infrastructure, and digital innovation, ambulance services can address inefficiencies and align with NHS England's recovery plans.
The proposed model emphasises high-quality, integrated care that keeps patients out of the hospital when unnecessary and focuses on prevention and reducing health inequalities.
For a detailed insight into the future of urgent and emergency care provision and the pivotal role of ambulance services, read the full report here: https://t.co/f4AiVt4x2D

Hypothetical scenario: if the initial paramedic degree was 4 years instead of 3 years for a bachelor, what additional content would you add to the degree?
Interested to hear your thoughts.
