Please be aware that a certificate from a Faculty endorsed course indicates completion of an educational course and does not infer ability to practice. It may not be used to indicate a Professional qualification of a license to perform a specific procedure. Individual accountability for any action subsequently taken by the holder must be governed according to his or her particular professional rules of codes of practice.
A Joint statement by the Faculty of Sport and Exercise Medicine, the Faculty of Pre-Hospital Care and the British Association of Sport and Exercise Medicine. Please read the agreement for more information.
The Faculty developed the PHEM Skills Framework with the purpose of developing a series of levels to allow a greater understanding of the clinical skills/competencies of various pre-hospital care providers arriving at an incident.
These levels have been designed specifically for the purpose of facilitating good inter-agency working on scene and are not related to educational attainment or Skills for Health Levels. It is also hoped that non medical organisations may use the framework as a benchmarking exercise for any of their staff who have casualty care as part of their role.
If you have any concerns about a Faculty endorsed course you have attended please contact the training provider in writing in the first instance. If you do not receive a reply or your concerns have not been addressed then please email:
