Road shifts will be worked as per your current rota, and you will be allocated on your relief weeks shifts in a Local Paramedic Practitioner Hub in your nearest operating unit as a priority over operational road shifts. You will also have the ability to undertake overtime within EOC or Hubs as and when shifts are offered.

As part of this exciting pilot, you will be trained in the use of the EOC systems and the PaCCs NHS Pathways consultation tool to undertake remote clinical assessments of patients presenting to the 999 service, to ensure they are directed to the most appropriate care pathways for their needs.

Following the revision of current national legislation (Vaccine as a Condition of Deployment), the Trust has reviewed our requirements relating to staff uptake of the SARS-COV-2 (COVID-19) vaccination.

Going forward, for patient facing positions, we strongly recommend that new starters will be appropriately vaccinated unless medically exempt in order to offer greater protection against exposure to the virus for front line staff.

In line with this recommendation, if you are successful in your application for a front line post, we will seek information from you in relation to your vaccine status, including exemption status, as applicable.

Please note, all positions come with a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check relevant to the post. This will either be a basic, standard, or enhanced check depending on the role. The level of check will be outlined in the conditional offer letter sent to successful applicants.

As part of the application process, you will be asked to declare any unspent/unfiltered convictions. If you are shortlisted you will then be sent a self declaration form, which must be completed prior to attending interview. for any queries relating to declarations, please contact the Recruitment Advisor listed on the vacancy.

Any unsocial hours payments will be paid under the Section 2 agreement of agenda for change. If you are currently paid under Annex 5 and this post is the same banding as your current role, you can request to remain on Annex 5, or move to Section 2.

Section 2 unsocial hours will automatically be paid via your monthly timesheet. More information regarding section 2 can be found in the Agenda for Change handbook and on the our dedicated Section 2 page on The Zon e .

If you are a current SECAmb employee and applying for a Secondment/Acting Up position, this would not be classed as a permanent change to your terms and conditions so if your application is successful, your current unsocial hours arrangements will not change for the duration of the secondment/acting up period.
