Coming Soon: Community Paramedicine Expansion
Shared Health is expanding the Community Paramedicine program by building on existing community paramedicine programs that currently exist in Winnipeg and introducing new units to meet the needs of rural Manitoba communities.
Community paramedics are part of an innovative care model that improves access to additional support services for patient populations such as seniors and patients with chronic health and social issues and results in fewer unnecessary transports to emergency departments.
As a community paramedic, you will identify care concerns and link patients with the right care through the development of treatment plans, involving a combination of services, treatment, support, and referrals to other parts of the health system.
