Career as a Paramedic

The Good Universities Guide states that paramedics provide pre-hospital emergency care, treatment and specialised transport for patients - Good Universities Guide - Paramedic Working as an ambulance paramedic means that no two days are ever the same. What a paramedic does can be as varied as restarting a patient’s heart down to helping solve social welfare issues. Ambulance paramedics are called when people feel they have no other options and are suffering what feels like an emergency to them. An interesting fact to remember when applying to become a paramedic is that the majority of the workload is not lights and sirens driving to save a patient's life. This job is more about helping people in their time of need as opposed to being a hero. Visit Ambulance Victoria - Types of Paramedics to find out more!
