Introduction

This is the second clinical placement unit which focuses on interprofessional and rural paramedic practice. Students will be exposed to the clinical environment in association with other professions, working as a Paramedic in the rural health care team will be explored along with placement as a third member of an emergency ambulance paramedic team. Clinical placement will have a preference to take place in rural ambulance stations where possible and associated health care facilities. Students will also undertake a one week clinical placement in an aged care facility.

Students will develop an understanding and work practices to facilitate working in the rural health care environment. Students will continue their clinical practice development in the out-of-hospital environment and consolidate skills within their scope of practice.
