Community Paramedicine Program

Overview:

Successful community paramedicine program helps fill recruitment and retention gaps.
Community Paramedicine Program
We have community paramedic contracts in [Community X] and [Community Y]. The [Community Y] position hasn’t been filled for quite some time, again retention and no recruitment. But they’ve made a tremendous difference in our ability to see more people and provide more client-centred care in their homes. It’s a really great thing and I know they’re expanding their services which makes it even better and they’re using more and more technology to meet especially rural and remote. It was great and it’s a great partnership with [Health Authority X]. My administrator, [Person X] was really essential in creating this partnership for us, [Region X] into a really great pull that they have come to the table. We also have contracts with them in [Community X] to support assisted living.
