Overview

Certication

UK NHS Ambulance Services have recently introduced various

practitioners into their frontline A&E model. They are to expand

the skill set they have and develop alternative transport methodsfor their patients, especially the lower category of patient. Some

of these roles have replaced the IHCD technician in most

services.

This demand has prompted Medipro to introduce this programme

to assist this transition. This course has been specically

developed for this tier of staff and in particular the tier of staff

who have been mapped to the NHS Knowledge and Skills

Framework (KSF) at band 3 and 4. Many services have named the

job title of these differently including Assistant Practitioner, A&E

support etc, this is why Medipro have generically used the term

‘Ambulance Emergency Care Support Worker’.

This course will appeal to both NHS and private ambulance

services as well as individuals wishing to gain employment within

the NHS or private sector.

We are committed to providing quality educational programmes

utilising the latest evidence based practice. This course has been

approved by the Royal College of Surgeons, Edinburgh as well as

through OCN Credit for Learning level 3. This not only gives

learners a nationally recognised course but with university

credits. It is also ELCAS approved for MOD personnel.

There are no pre course requirements for this programme. It

would be advantageous to have a full UK driving licence with C1

and 5 GCSE's or equivalent to help with employment but not

essential for this course.

After successful completion of written and practical

assessments a certicate will be awarded from the Royal

College of Surgeons, Edinburgh as well as OCN Credit 4

Learning at Level 3. Although the certicates don't have a valid

period and don't require any formal refresher it is encouragedthat learners maintain a CPD portfolio and keep up to date with

current practice.

HSE OFFSHORE MEDIC REFRESHER

DISTANCE LEARNING

Course Duration: 1 to 6 month (estimate)

This HSE Offshore Medic refresher course encompasses all therequired elements from the HSE to guide you through a refresher

process, utilising a distance learning option.

It is often very difcult for medics to get the required time off to

complete their HSE Offshore Medic refresher course. This option

utilises a distance learning approach to complete 4 modules

which can be completed in your own time, at your own pace. It is

possible to complete this course over a 1 to 6 six month period.

Once all 4 modules have been completed satisfactorily you can

attend one of our 2 day skills update and assessment programme

to nalise your refresher process. Here you will refresh on all your

practical skills which include:

• Advanced Life Support Skills

• ECG recognition

• Drugs

• A chance for you to practice on any equipment you

feel is necessary

How it works:

1. Medipro post to you module books and a core reading

manual as well as a CD of relevant learning materials

2. Learners complete the written exercises within the module

book by conducting their own self-directed study and

research, then return the module to Medipro for marking

and feedback

3. Medipro then forward the next module book with feedback

until all modules are complete including 3 small structured

essays

4. Our faculty will offer both telephone and online support

throughout the process

5. The learner picks a suitable 2 day assessment course from

the available dates

6. There are NO written exams to complete on your 2 day

update/assessment day

Criteria

Syllabus

Certication

Medipro have built strong relationships with various educationalinstitutes over the last 12 months, which include the HSE,

Northumbria University and the Royal College of Surgeons of

Edinburgh. This has not only given us a far greater understanding

of APEL processes, standards and academic credit but has

enabled us to offer a very unique portfolio of programmes.

Many of our learners who attend our courses are looking for new

employment and using education as a means to increase their

knowledge and skills to improve their employment opportunities.

This is even more so within the security and close protection

environment. As many of the larger employers have varying

entrance criteria and essential education it is often difcult for

learners to choose the right course. It is even more frustrating

when some employers require specically worded courses and

when learners attend them all, largely the content is very similar.

To assist our learners and utilise our advantage of not only having

multiple approved courses but having a greater understanding of

the education process we have developed a single programme

which will allow for multiple certicates, and is specically aimed

at the medics who wish to gain employment or increase their

skills to move to a more clinically focused role.

The course is ELCAS fundable for MOD personnel.

Learners will be required to work across some weekends.

Upon successful completion of each assessment the

following will be awarded:

• HSE Offshore Medic and OCN Offshore Medic

academic credits at level 4

• IMCA Diver Medic (IMCA award for HSE divers) all other learners will receive a Medipro DMT

• Pre Hospital Trauma Management (Royal College of

Surgeons of Edinburgh)

• Medicine in Remote Areas MIRA - (Royal College of

• Surgeons of Edinburgh and OCN Credit4learning

level 4 credits)

• RTC Awareness

• Training Skills and Practice - CIEH Level 3 training

and mentorship programme

• Pre Hospital Advanced Life Support Skills




Criteria

There are no pre course requirements for this award.

TACTICAL & CLOSE PROTECTION

CRITICAL CARE TRAINING (TACCCT)

This course has been developed through demand from our

learners who specically work in the close protection arena.

Although it is internationally recognised that the FPOS

intermediate is the entry standard for basic medical providers,

sometimes learners just want 'a little but more'.

Medipro's TACCCT course bridges a large gap between the

FPOS/MIRA provider and the advanced tier 2 clinician. Although

the FPOS programme that Medipro deliver is a fantastic course

and does exactly what it is intended to do, some learners not only

require more knowledge and skills but so do their patients within

the environments they work. The programme will equip learners

with a greater understanding of injuries and conditions as well as

some new additional skills that could make a difference to your

patients. Learners need to be aware this is a clinical coursefocusing on clinical knowledge and skills.

Why choose this course:


• Each learner will also be awarded the IHCD FPOS

intermediate and the MIRA approved by the Royal College

of Surgeons of Edinburgh

• RTC Awareness certicate

• OCN Credit4learning approved giving learners academic

credits at level 4

• Advanced knowledge and skills

• Awareness of invasive techniques to enable learners toassist with more condence

IHCD FPOS Intermediate (FPOS I) is the minimum standard for

community responders and close protection ofcers.

The IHCD is the awarding body (via Edexcel) for NHS

ambulance trusts in the UK. It has also been accredited by the

Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh. This foundational and

valuable course is designed for the immediate care and

responses required in any emergency situation. It is the

standard required for all community rst responders, security

and close protection ofcers as well as those wishing to gain

tier 1 medic employment.

ELCAS students can use their learning credits to fund this

course.

Due to the varied communities that require this course we

have allocated a designated time slot within each of our

courses to cover industry specics. This has included

drowning and immersion, assisting the clinician with IV and IO

access, RTC extrication etc. We believe in the value of this

course and by extending the knowledge and skills of our

learners in certain areas, if they require it, not only increases

the skill set of each student but more importantly improves

patient care.

There are no pre-course requirements.

After completing written MCQ and practical assessments a

certicate will be awarded from IHCD (Edexcel) which is valid

for 3 years.

To re-certify after the 3 year period learners will need to

complete the written and practical assessments and providing

they achieve the current standards we will issue another

certicate for a further 3 years. Please call us for details

Many of our courses include time spent in various placement areas, these are

designed to enhance your learning experience by getting a chance to see various

medical conditions and practice the skills that you have been taught on our

courses.

You will be mentored by a team of very experienced medical clinicians,

including Nurses, Nurse Practitioners, Doctors, Specialist Doctors, and

Consultants.

All our placement areas are local to our site in the North East, they are busyNHS departments, with some being major trauma units, or centres of

cardiac expertise. The majority of our placements are practice placements,

meaning that you will not be there to merely observe what is going on, but you will be

given the opportunity to use what you have learned with us on real patients. You will

be fully insured with Medipro whilst on these practice placement areas.

Some courses that we offer automatically include a placement area, however if you are

enrolled on a course that does not include a placement and feel that you would benet

from seeing what you have learned rst hand, then please contact us with your request

and we will arrange something suitable uniquely for you.

Out of practice clinician?

Some registered clinicians fall out of practice for various reasons, and then wish to return to their

career later on. Many governing bodies require that such people demonstrate that they have

refreshed themselves not only through academic learning, but by being mentored delivering

care to particular patient groups. This can be particularly difcult for people who are no longer

employed within the NHS.

If you are a registered clinician in a situation like this then we are able to create a plan that would

benet your needs, and get you access to a variety of practice placement areas within NHS

hospitals. So that you can evidence to your governing body that you are now ready for practice

once again. Popular placement areas we have arranged in the past are Theatres (for advanced

airway management practice), Cardiac care units, and Accident

and emergency.

Please contact our ofce to discuss you needs

All placement areas are subject to an Enhanced CRB

check. No criminal conviction no matter how small is‘spent’ on these checks, however having a conviction

may not necessarily preclude you from attending, all

students are judged on an individual basis.

Spending time in a placement area can be an extremely useful way of consolidating what you

have already learned, and learning new skills from experienced practitioners.
