NAPAS Staff Qualifications

It has been Nationally recognised since 1970, that Ambulance Aid is a skill of Care and Treatment prior to, and during transportation. These skills can only be achieved through both training and experience, that essential experience should always be obtained through qualified supervision, this includes both Basic and Extended Skills. NAPAS Member Services always ensure that this is undertaken before they will accept staff as being competent.

NAPAS Member service staff are normally trained through external training providers (other than for induction training). All courses are prior approved, so that they meet with Nationally accepted equivalent levels of training for Ambulance and Extended Ambulance Aid competency. Additional PHTLS - ATLS - BASICS training is encouraged.

NAPAS Professional further encourages the development of life-long learning, and during the past year have been engaged on a number of projects to develop this both on line and through already developed programmes. NAPAS are continuing to develop through the Association of European Ambulances (AEA) a European Core Standard for Ambulance Technicians, as this develops we continue to encourage all Ambulance Technicians to engage in some of the recommended existing online educational link programmes, further links are being developed and will be added as time progresses.
