HIQA Review of National Ambulance Service: Health Service Executive
7:05 pm
Mr. Martin Dunne:
As I indicated, ambulance service staff operate at three levels, namely, emergency medical technician, paramedic and advanced paramedic. They operate to a certain level under the Pre-Hospital Emergency Care Council which is responsible for the governance of the level at which medication can be administered.
