/ 26 Graduate Campaign - Newly Qualified Paramedic inTrustwide inTrustwide PUBLISHED
THU 5 DEC 2024
Candidates must possess a full UK driving licence with certain limitations and can apply for funding for the C1 license if not already held. While limited positions are available in Bristol and Gloucestershire, those applying will be placed in a holding pool without a defined offer timeline. Assessments for this role are scheduled for Spring/Summer 2025, and new hires will also be enrolled in an Emergency Response Ambulance Driving course to facilitate their onboarding process.
Join us as a Newly Qualified Paramedic and you'll find an exciting and forward-thinking ambulance service with an impressive commitment to supporting clinicians in advanced and autonomous clinical care to ensure the best outcomes for patients.
We can offer:
- A funded C1 practical test in Somerset, Dorset, Wiltshire, Cornwall and South & West Devon.
- An enhanced supportive preceptorship programme to help develop your confidence as an autonomous professional, and support your continuous learning
- An award winning staying well service
Examples of our clinical highlights include:
- Treating more patients at home without the need to attend ED
- A dedicated team of senior clinicians to ensure that our Paramedics continue to enjoy being able to practise the highest skill level in the UK.
- A wide range of local guidelines to deliver care well beyond JRCALC to maximise clinical autonomy.
- 24/7 senior clinical support for decision making and in cases when you need that little extra help.
- A fully embedded consolidation of learning period to ensure you develop and progress as quickly and fully as possible.
- A structured career pathway with opportunities to progress to specialist Paramedic roles in primary & critical care.
Please note there is currently limited availability within the Bristol and Gloucestershire areas. If you apply for a position within these areas you will be placed into our holding pool and we are unable to provide a timescale as to when you may be offered a position.
Upon joining us, we can assure you of a warm welcome as well as help with the practicalities of securing your first NQP role, plus a supportive preceptorship programme to guide you through your early employment.
You must hold a full UK driving licence, with no more than six points allowed for certain offences. If you do not currently hold the full C1 licence you can apply, however you must be able to evidence a C1 pass before commencing employment with the Trust. We are excited to be able to offer funding for your C1 in certain areas if this is not something that you already hold (repayable if start date not fulfilled).
Assessment dates will take place throughout Spring/Summer 2025.
As part of your offer of employment you will be provided with a funded Emergency Response Ambulance Driving course. If you have obtained this prior to application we will arrange for you to carry out an Emergency Response Ambulance Driving assessment with our local Driver Training team prior to starting.
