I am a qualified paramedic

I currently work as a paramedic, which has given me extensive experience in delivering patient-centred care in high-pressure situations. My role involves assessing and managing a wide range of medical emergencies, communicating clearly with patients and colleagues, and making quick but safe clinical decisions. I’ve developed strong skills in working as part of a multidisciplinary team, maintaining accurate records, staying calm under pressure, and showing empathy and professionalism with every patient interaction. This experience has prepared me well for transitioning into a general practice or healthcare assistant role.

I have recently completed a BSc (Hons) in Paramedic Science, where I developed a strong foundation in clinical assessment, emergency care, and evidence-based practice. Throughout the course, I gained hands-on experience through both academic learning and frontline ambulance placements, enabling me to deliver safe, effective, and compassionate patient care. My education has prepared me to work confidently in high-pressure environments while continually developing my clinical reasoning and professional skills.
