About Paramedic Science in Anglia Ruskin University
Our exciting Paramedic Science degree course will teach you the skills you need to work as a Paramedic. You'll get practical experience by using our modern skills laboratories, mannequins and specialist equipment, and back it up with the theory you learn in the lecture theatre. Then you'll apply both theory and practice on your clinical placements with local ambulance trusts. You'll be placed with either East of England Ambulance Service NHS Trust or London Ambulance Service NHS Trust. As well as your ambulance placement you'll also experience other types of placement including critical care, maternity and emergency departments.
You'll get expert guidance from supportive tutors, including practising professionals, you'll learn to work as a multidisciplinary team, reflecting the real-life working environment.
Our Paramedic Science degree is designed and delivered by our team of Paramedic academics and practitioners with input from our partner ambulance services. It's approved by the Health & Care Professions Council, so you'll be eligible to apply for registration to work as a Paramedic as soon as you graduate.
After graduation and registration, you could work in a wide range of out-of-hospital care settings, including an ambulance or response car, the control room, an air ambulance (HEMS) team, or a hazardous area response team. Increasingly, Paramedics are also helping to deliver acute care in hospitals and private healthcare, such as at concerts or motor-racing events, as well as working in primary care settings including GP surgeries and walk-in centres.
We're dedicated to the continual improvement of every aspect of healthcare and delivering the values set out in the NHS Constitution.
