Summary
Reliable Paramedic with excellent initiative and prioritisation skills offers experience in high-pressure emergency care. Clinically-sound and productive under pressure for safe, reliable patient support. Dynamic and motivated with strong communication skills to meet demands of fast-paced environments. I have experience from Primary care, Urgent Care, Vaccine centres and A and E. I have lead two big medical teams on two events running a medical centre and dealing with different patient groups. I am also proactive with my CPD and self learning. My future intentions is to spend next 12 months developing my knowledge with PHTLS, PALS and maternity courses.
