This was filmed for a tv programme a few years ago and has information about our paramedic course which is one of the many courses at Coventry University with a focus on training in the real world.

  • awesome man, I'm an Advanced paramedic here in USA, its a great job....your lucky to be in UK. here in USA most ambulances are private corporations, which can really suck its all about the profit and money..... our level of care is about the same as in UK (matter of fact we use the same textbooks from what I hear)....but I think the management of the service in UK is far superior to America..and paramedics in UK are paid much better than here.

  • Great video!

  • @firefighterE134 I have a question, you said you are a paramedic. I live in Ohio and I'm thinking of going to get my EMT and on for my Paramedic. Do you have any advice? anything u have would be greatly appreciated

  • @lolpranksta Have you also noticed that I have not made a single mistake. Not EVERYONE makes mistakes every now and again. Do not judge people by your own, somewhat sloppy standards.

  • @lolpranksta That last reply was much better. You took a bit of pride with your spelling. Looking words up in the dictionary to check before posting I suspect.  Well done! Now do not let your standards drop again. I hope you are not that sloppy while out working

  • @brendanbutterworth Why are you judging someone on the internet based on how they spell? I'd love to show you my AP marks. EVERYONE makes a few mistakes every now and then. So don't act like a smart ass with me kid. I've probably helped more people than you ever will. Why? Because I care. When it comes to the field, I take my stuff seriously. On the web, it's just pure freedom of speech.I graduated from SAIT polytechnic in Calgary, Alberta. Yes I am educated. More than you.

  • @lolprnksta Are you educated? I would not like you to care fore me if you can not spell or write.  the word MORE is not spelt moer. Cheque is not spelt check. Care giver is two words, not one as you write. This is why I can never read or understand my medical records

  • @lolpranksta I love to help people ,I had to ask considering I want to have lots of kids in the future =) Im going to be a Paramedic for sure. Its in my blood to help , we as humans should help / donate blood for free too .

  • @EVILAKUMA This is not the career to get into if you care about the pay. It was on the list of the worst jobs to be in on a 2011 survey. You get into this line of work because you care moer about helping people than the check you recieve every two weeks. If you're compassionate and a caregiver, go for this. If you can't handle the high stress and low pay, don't do it. It's not a career for profit.

  • Im going :)

  • how much is the pay?

  • Is it possible to have a second job while doing EMT-P?
