Unfortunately i didn't get a place. The competition must have been pretty imense.
I just waffled for most of the things they asked about myself.
What is a ECP? Emergency Care Practitioner - they are one role up from a paramedic. They tend to people in their own homes and can give out drugs which paramedics are not qualified to do.
How is a paramedics role changing? Basically, they are having to tend to more non-emergency things and if possible, not take patients to hospital. They are also beggining to become trained to do more advanced things.
Why i would make a good paramedic? I just said the usual.. i'm a hard worker, trustworthy, caring... etc.
Bad paramedic? I was stumped, i just came out with i get bored easily - don't think that went down too well.
