~ Air Ambulance Charity Kent Surrey Sussex (KSS) is an internationally renowned air ambulance charity providing Helicopter Emergency Medicine Services (HEMS) to the 4.Our vision is an end to preventable loss of life from medical emergency. Although we are an independent charity and healthcare provider, KSS has strong links with University Hospitals Sussex, both managerially and clinically.
KSS operate two teams from Redhill Aerodrome one 24 hours a day (two twelve-hour shifts Helimed 60) and one 18 hours a day (two nine-hour shifts Helimed 21) seven days a week. Both teams compise at least one HEMS paramedic and one HEMS doctor and can be deployed via helicopter or rapid response car to patients requiring pre-hospital resuscitation and rapid transfer to the most appropriate hospital for their needs.
KSS work in partnerships with the statutory ambulance service (South East Coast Ambulance NHS Foundation Trust), the Major Trauma Centres in Kent (Kings College Hospital), Surrey (St Georges Hospital) and Sussex (the Royal Sussex County Hospital) and hospital teams across the three counties. KSS has built a strong reputation for delivering high quality pre-hospital care and is renowned internationally for the strength of the service it has developed and for its reputation as a leading producer of impactful per-hospital care research.
The Specialist HEMS Paramedic is expected to deliver high quality patient focused care within their own scope of practice, and within the context of the enhanced care team underpinned by experience within the HEMS environment and a core set of competencies.
They will be expected to have a sound knowledge and appropriate level of experience in the management of the critically ill or injured complex patient, in the pre-hospital setting.
The role involves providing specialist advice within the team in matters relating to scene safety, scene management, inter-agency working, extrication techniques, patient triage and transportation. A sound knowledge of the acute health care networks across the South East is therefore vital.

This is a key member of our newly formed Patient and Family Aftercare Team, with responsibility for the development and embedding of this service within our communities. This is best achieved through the establishment of more extensive patient relationships and acute sector collaboration, allowing us to obtain granular quantitative and qualitative data which will be vital in informing the targeted development of prevention and education strategies as well as of core service provision.
