Regional representatives vacancies

  Back to News Home

The Faculty of Pre-Hospital Care (FPHC) is looking for enthusiastic individuals to fill-in the vacant representative positions in the following regions:

- Northern Ireland

- North East

- South East

Regional representatives are the link between the Faculty office and the regions. Their main role is to co-ordinate and promote high quality education and teaching in pre-hospital care, as well as effectively integrate the efforts of all participants in pre-hospital care in their respective regions.

Representatives can be from any professional background involved in the delivery of pre-hospital care, and at any level of training / practice. They are nominated for a period of 3 years and report to the FPHC Regional Co-ordinator, Dr. Pam Hardy.

Other responsibilities include:

1. Contribute to co-ordination and promotion of educational events in their areas
2. Actively share information with FPHC to enable update of regional web pages
3. Promote other resources on the FPHC website, for example exams and accreditation, being cognisant of the fact that this is now all multidisciplinary
4. Engage with relevant practitioners and groups in the region, for example:

• Links with universities - such as representing FPHC at University Open days – ideal to do with Student Rep’s and especially with progress in some areas integrating PHEM into the undergraduate curriculum
• Participation in undergraduate teaching opportunities and link with undergraduate schemes
• Engaging with regional Major Trauma Networks and sharing educational / M&M meeting details via the web page
• Encouraging PHEM trainees, especially at completion of their training programmes to contribute to the regional groups, and making contact via the Training Programme Directors to welcome any new PHEM trainees to the region
• Events teams and voluntary aid groups
• Ensuring close links with local operational BASICS Schemes - and seeking agreement for links to those schemes to be on the regional web pages, along with any opportunities for interested folk to get practical experience.

For further information, please visit the FPHC website Groups and Regional pages.

Please send your note of interest to Dr. Pam Hardy, pamela.hardy@rcsed.net or the Faculty office at fphc@rcsed.ac.uk

We are looking forward to hearing from you!
