Paramedics

Working with Health Education England we have published guidance which describes the scope of practice of paramedics working in general practice. This document is aimed at general practices and ambulance services to improve understanding of the roles and responsibilities of general practice paramedics. It includes information on education/development needs, supervision requirements and the differences between enhanced, first contact and advanced levels of practice.
