The Shift Extension Paramedic Podcast

While we're passionate advocates for creative careers, innovation, and pushing our profession forward, we also have enormous respect for where we've come from. Ambulance services are the foundation of prehospital care, and that heritage deserves to be celebrated.
That's why this episode is such a special one. Collaborations between the private sector and jurisdictional ambulance services aren't always easy to bring together, but when they do, everyone benefits. We were honoured to be joined by Andy, Megan and Nick from Clinical Practice Radio, the official podcast of St John Ambulance WA, for a conversation that crossed organisational boundaries and focused on what really matters...better care, better clinicians, and a stronger profession.
We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we enjoyed recording it, and here's to many more collaborations that bring our profession together.

We're back after a 12 month break from recording with new hosts and a new take on what it is to be a shift worker! Join Sunny, Lou and Hannah as they welcome Hannah and delve into just how creative we can be in our jobs and seeking feedback from those below us.

We got a letter from an avid listener. A handwritten letter with a wax seal. They had some great questions about analgesia, working as a clinician while they are a student and the toll of the job.

This was a topic that came up over coffee. We hit record and wanted to see where the conversation would flow. Check it out!

Have you heard the term, just because you can, doesn't mean you should? Today we discuss a paper called "Idle peripheral intravenous cannulation: an observational cohort study of pre-hospital and emergency department practices" by Hugo Evison.
