Job description

Hiring: Paramedic Job in Parkes NSW Ambulance

NSW Ambulance is seeking a full-time paramedic to deliver front-line out-of-hospital care, medical retrieval, and health-related transport for sick and injured people in both emergency and non-emergency settings. The role involves accurately assessing and documenting patients' health and medical needs to determine and implement appropriate paramedical care in line with Ambulance policies and procedures.

Location: Parkes, New South Wales
Work Type: Full Time
Classification: Paramedic

• Certificate to Practice
• High standard of clinical care and knowledge
• Ability to work independently and in a team environment
• Integrity and respect for ethical and professional standards
• Clinical reasoning, analytical, and problem-solving skills
• Planning and organizing skills to effectively manage own time and prioritize workload

We are committed to providing high-quality clinical care and health-related transport services to over 7.5 million people in NSW, across an area of 801,600 square kilometres.

The average number of ambulance responses decreased by 1.3% over the past year. This decrease is primarily due to the transfer of responsibility for a significant part of the Non-Emergency (P5, 6, 7) activity to Health Share in May 2014.

In 2015/16, we provided 1,115,635 total responses (both emergency and non-emergency), compared to 1,127,545 responses in 2014/15. On average, there were 3,048 responses per day—equivalent to a response every 28 seconds.

We employ over 4,500 people, with 90% being operational staff involved in frontline service delivery. This includes paramedics and specialized areas such as intensive care and extended care paramedics, special operations, counter-disaster, aeromedical, and medical retrieval. The remaining 10% are corporate and support staff who assist in service delivery, including mechanical workshops, finance and payroll, human resources, and administration.
