Post-registration framework
A post-registration career framework is a structured guide that outlines the skills, competencies, and development pathways available to healthcare professionals after they have qualified, helping them plan and progress their careers.
Scope of Practice - CoP
The College of Paramedics Education Advisory Group have updated our Scope of Practice document (September 2021) to provide members with clear and definitive information to outline the fundamental principles, standards and guidelines underpinning scope of practice.
Scope of Practice - HCPC
Your scope of practice is the limit of your knowledge, skills and experience and when you become a health and care professional, you must ensure that you work within your scope of practice.
Your scope of practice is likely to change over time as your knowledge, skills and experience develop. So how can you determine what your scope of practice is?
The standards of proficiency for your profession will help, as these set clear expectations of registrants’ knowledge and abilities when they start practising.
Position statements
Tracheal intubation by paramedics has long been the subject of professional and legal debate, as well as Crown investigations. The College of Paramedics, via a working consensus group, reviewed the evidence and expert opinion, to produce a consensus statement to help prevent patient harm and promote patient safety, clinical effectiveness and professional standards.
