PHSA - BCEHS - COVID-19 Update for Student Paramedics

This course gives students in educational establishments external to BCEHS access to BCEHS’s response in addressing changes required for safe delivery of care during COVID-19.

The COVID-19 pandemic has necessitated a number of changes to standard clinical practice to ensure paramedic safety whilst maintaining the standard of care for patients. These updates were initially delivered daily, but now are distributed three times per week. As more evidence and information has come to light regarding COVID-19 guidelines have been adapted accordingly, with this at times contradicting previous guidance. This course aims to assist paramedics in ensuring that they have current knowledge of the changes made to clinical practice guidelines secondary to the COVID-19 pandemic.
