What I'm looking for

I am looking for the opportunity to use the skills and training I have aquired to benefit a team or employer in promoting healthcare and providing emergency healthcare solutions.

I am a confident and motivated paramedic with over 24 years of service in the British Army and extensive experience in frontline and forensic healthcare. My journey has equipped me with strong leadership, communication, and organizational skills, which I have applied in various challenging environments. I have been highly regarded by my previous employers for my dedication and patient-centered approach to care.

Currently, I work as a self-employed Flight Paramedic and Custody/Forensic Health Care Professional, where I am responsible for critical clinical decisions, patient management, and liaising with multiple agencies to ensure optimal patient outcomes. My role demands a high level of clinical expertise, particularly in emergency situations, where I lead Advanced Life Support (ALS) and Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) incidents. I am committed to continuous professional development, maintaining my HCPC registration, and ensuring the highest standards of care.
