Paramedic science degree courses were introduced in the UK in 1998 and the training has developed over the last two decades. In Make Me a Paramedic we follow two students striving to achieve their dreams of becoming fully trained paramedics. As well as looking at their time on
campus, a core part of the degree is going out on placement shifts with the North West Ambulance Service.

Hina is a 24-year-old first year student from Darwen, who started to dream about becoming a paramedic whilst working as a carer. Originally from Pakistan, Hina left education behind at 18 to support her family. Now it鈥檚 time to focus on her own career and she鈥檚 eager to grab the opportunity with both hands.

Sarah is a mature third year student from Warrington retraining after a career in hospitality. As a single parent, she juggles childcare with the rigours of full time study and twelve hour shifts on the ambulance. With just ten placement shifts left with the ambulance service, she鈥檚 nearly completed the degree and is facing up to the reality of becoming fully responsible for patients at some of the most difficult moments of their lives.
