    Paramedic - Wakefield, West Yorkshire, United Kingdom - Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust

    Default job background
    Description

    As one of our Paramedics, you will often be the first healthcare professional to arrive on scene at emergency and non-emergency medical incidents and it will be your responsibility to treat and transport patients. When accompanied by a less clinically qualified colleague, such as an Ambulance Support Worker (ASW), you will be expected to assume clinical primacy, provide clinical support and take the lead.

    Yorkshire Ambulance Service (YAS) is now recruiting for Paramedics and Newly Qualified Paramedics, or students due to register who are looking to start their career within the Yorkshire Ambulance Service at the following base stations: Ingleton, Settle, Grassington, Skipton and South Kirby.

This could involve organising or managing patients, bystanders or other responding services with you taking the lead. About us Our Trust values are really important to us, you'll need to be able to understand them and why they're important, and subscribe to our behaviours to really succeed in your role at YAS.
