The Australian Paramedical College is proud to now be offering the HLT51020 – Diploma of Emergency Health Care.
This new qualification is the most up-to-date training available for pre-hospital healthcare and supersedes the HLT51015 – Diploma of Paramedical Science.
This qualification was updated to meet the current and future needs of the emergency health care sector. The updates were developed by The Ambulance and Paramedic Industry Reference Committee and approved by the Australian Industry and Skills Committee.
In the video above you will hear from two industry professionals on how this new qualification was an important and positive change for the industry.
Sam Willis, Course Coordinator of Bachelor of Science (Paramedicine) at Curtain University says:
“The qualification is highly credible in the academic world, and it remains a qualification that will get you into certain roles within the industry, and will definitely get you into the paramedic qualification at a number of universities”.
Brodie White, Managing Director of Medical Edge Australia, says:
“Careers and qualifications progress with more evidence-based care, and it’s important that the Diploma keeps up with that. The Diploma, more than ever, is more evidence-based and provides better patient care”
The new HLT51020 – Diploma of Emergency Health Care qualification is a positive and necessary update to the industry, and it continues to provide you with the best pathways to your chosen career in pre-hospital health care.
