Anybody on here a Paramedic or EMT?
« on: 27 February 2009, 14:32:37 »

Just wondered if anyone's been through the London Ambulance assessment procedure?    ::)

Not the London one, but I know someone who has gone through the Hamshire one.

I might be able to help with any questions...... :-/

The main thing I'm thinking about is the format of the assessments, are they multi choice, true/false, essay questions.  Would just be nice to know what to expect...

I imagine it's slightly different between different services, but I don't know...

From their site:

If you are shortlisted, you will be asked to complete a series of assessments. These include numeracy, verbal reasoning, infection control (for which you will receive pre-learning materials), Highway Code and map-reading.

If you pass these assessments, you will be invited to an interview, and from here you will be offered a fixed-term contract for a period of three years, during which you will undertake your training to become a paramedic. You will be offered permanent employment subject to successful completion of the three-year training programme.



Not bad money either!  :y

If you have any problems with map reading I am a ninja instructor and can help you with any questions there  ;)  It can seem a bit daunting but I also have all the army learning material  :y

I've seen that cheers Gaffers   :y    Would just like to know if the papers are multi choice of true/false or even essay type questions.  Thought it was worth seeing if anyone on here might know, a long shot I know...  

I'm alright with the map reading cheers, did Duke of Edinburghs as a kid and was class one on the wagons for 2.5 years.   :y
