the original post was and is spot on...but not only is the problem some TP's, but the Oil and Gas people.... They are not willing to pay decent wages for 'real' medics. MIRA, ATOM Viper or any other feekin snake course, does not make you a Medic. Great post CPParamedic. Just wish there was...

that certain NE TP is apparently 'at it' again.......

is there a reciprical arrangment with the HCPC in the U.K. ?? eg transfering your paramedic qualification?
