Urgent care continues to expand across Victoria, with Urgent Care Paramedics starting to play a role in these settings. Over the last few weeks, I have been onboarding into one of these roles with the ForHealthGroup at the Carlton Clinic within Inner Melbourne. I have really enjoying getting stuck in alongside an awesome multi-disciplinary team of nurses and Doctors and taking care of patients in this setting. I’m looking forward to seeing how the role grows and how it continues to integrate into patients care needs to support the UPCC models! #UPCC

I am grateful for the opportunity to serve in this role with the @VicGovDH and working alongside colleagues across the sector to strengthen paramedicine and the broader healthcare system. Paramedicine continues to evolve as a profession, and I am motivated to connect with people across the state, listen to the experiences of those working in the system, and contributing to ongoing improvements in care, workforce capability and service delivery. A sincere thank you to @DrLouReynolds for her leadership and the important work that has already been achieved in progressing the role, care for patients and supporting the profession. I look forward to collaborating with many of you in the months ahead!
