  • Unlimited mental health consultations.
  • Unlimited physiotherapy consultations.
  • Access to legal advice on domestic issues e.g. motoring offences, wills and probate, and personal injury.
  • Financial guidance re retirement planning, tax savings and state benefits.
  • Long Service Recognition Scheme – recognising colleagues for their continued service after 5 years and at 5-year intervals with an increase in annual leave.
  • Values-based Internal Recognition Scheme with financial reward, which will lead to an annual recognition event.
  • Refer a Friend recruitment incentive scheme with financial rewards.
  • The EMED foundation, to provide support to colleagues and our local communities.

  • Uniform provided.
  • EAP (Employee Assistance Programme) to support a range of health and wellbeing requirements.
  • Flu vaccination (through an internal campaign in Autumn/Winter).

    • Other duties include:

  • Assisting in the transportation of 'end of life' service users, ensuring a high level of empathy is present at all times
  • Building rapport by effectively communicating with patients and their relatives/friends
  • Responsible for lifting, securing and helping service users in and out of the Ambulance
  • Assist with the handing over of patients to appropriate staff on arrival at treatment centres/hospital's or to family/friends at their homes.
  • Transfer patients from beds to stretchers, chairs to chairs or similar both in and out of hospital and medical/commercial flights.
  • Assisting service users with challenging behaviour and/or mental health illnesses
  • Ensuring that the ambulance is kept safe, clean and tidy

    • To be considered as an ACA, you will need to be:

  • Committed to patient care
  • An effective communicator and experience of communicating with others in what can often be emotional circumstances
  • To be a calm, considerate, careful driver, with no more than three penalty points on your license
  • To have a natural flair for team working and collaboration
  • Be physically fit for patient handling and moving
  • Pass an Enhanced DBS check (company funded)
  • Be able to work flexible shifts
  • Familiar with the local and surrounding area
