Leicester, United Kingdom East Midlands Ambulance Service NHS Trust Full time

PLEASE DO NOT APPLY FOR THIS ROLE IF YOU HAVE RECENTLY (WITHIN THE PAST TWO WEEKS) BEEN INVITED FOR AN INTERVIEW OR HAVE RECEIVED EMAIL CONFIRMATION THAT YOU HAVE PROGRESSED TO INTERVIEW STAGE OR IF YOU HAVE BEEN UNSUCCESSFUL IN THE PROCESS FOR THIS ROLE IN ANY OF OUR GEOGRAPHICAL AREAS WITHIN THE PAST 6 MONTHS.

East Midlands Ambulance NHS Trust is pleased to advertise more new opportunities for the Ambulance Support Crew (ASC) role at our Trust. Our Ambulance Support Crew (ASC) is an operational ambulance role that responds to patients accessing EMAS with emergency and urgent care needs.

Are you looking for a new challenge?

As an ASC you will work with other support staff and Clinicians to respond to patients and deliver/support care and/or transportation to other services. Some calls will be emergencies and you will be developed to respond to patients under emergency driving conditions.

ASC are required to work across a range of shifts including days, nights, weekends and public holidays.

EMAS are committed to providing outstanding Patient care. You must be a motivated and committed person to delivering outstanding care. Your personal values should align to the EMAS values of respect, integrity, contribution, teamwork and competence.

You must be willing to advocate for people and be person centric in your care, demonstrating excellent communication skills, empathy and effective teamwork. Additionally, you must promote equality, diversity and inclusion in your everyday work.

As ASC you will attend a wide range of emergency and urgent care calls, with some being life threatening, serious and/or emotionally/psychologically challenging. EMAS have a wide range of support for staff and you must embrace such support and be committed towards developing your professional resilience within the role.

Ideally you will have NHS and/or patient care experience within a Health and Social Care role. This may extend to voluntary roles, including community response or voluntary ambulance services. Alternatively, you may have been in a customer facing role, with experience of dealing with complex or challenging situations and achieving good outcomes with people and colleagues.

Education and Development

ASC will undertake the First Response Emergency Care Courses at Levels 3 & 4 and the Level 3 Certificate in Emergency Response Ambulance Driving (CERAD). These will require attendance at an EMAS Education Centre and contain a range of teaching, learning and formal assessments. ASC will require a full manual driving licence (with no more than 3 points) and the C1 category on the driving licence.

Functional Skills

The ASC role requires you to have good applied numeracy and literacy. The role will require you to use technology such as electronic patient report forms and to document the care provided. During your education period you will produce workbooks, undertake written and practical assessments and engage with face to face an online learning.

Teamwork is essential in the ASC role and you must have the knowledge and skills to work with people and contribute collaboratively to care. Part of the role requires receiving clinical direction and decisions and so active listening and an ability to follow clinical direction is important.

Please ensure to read the job description for this vacancy to view and understand the main responsibilities and expectations, as well as the essential criteria requirements for this vacancy.
