Ambulance Support Worker

7 days ago

Kingston upon Hull, United Kingdom Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust Full time

An Ambulance Support Worker (ASW) responds to emergency calls alongside a paramedic, helping them to provide patients with potentially life-saving care and, where needed, getting patients to hospital. They attend every kind of accident and emergency, sometimes covering considerable distances, using expert emergency driving skills to get to the scene with the greatest speed possible.

The role of ASW can provide an excellent opportunity to further develop a career in healthcare and within Yorkshire Ambulance Service. You will be required to undertake a Level 3 Ambulance Support Worker Apprenticeship. This is a nationally recognised qualification that demonstrates your operational competency in the care field. Following successful completion of this it will enable you to benefit from career progression within the Trust, including development opportunities to become a HCPC registered paramedic.

This is a stimulating and challenging role, but it is not for everyone. We need people that are confident, caring, compassionate and hard-working; you will be as passionate as we are about making a positive difference to the people of Yorkshire.

No two shifts will be the same; you might respond to a road accident victim with multiple severe injuries or be required to transfer a very sick baby to a specialist treatment centre.

As an Ambulance Support Worker, you will be a highly visible role model, not only in respect of what you do, but also in the way you conduct yourself with our patients, the public and colleagues

As part of this role you will be required to provide a consistently high
standard of driving skills to UK national standards and be able to successful complete a level 3 in Emergency Ambulance Response Driving.
