This research project aims to explore the acceptability of the ‘Person-centred consultation framework for paramedics attending non-acute presentations’, by gathering feedback from potential end-users.
This framework aims to guide all paramedics, and particularly those transitioning into extended, advanced practice and Community Paramedic roles, to conduct a holistic biopsychosocial assessment with patients who have non-emergency needs. Early feedback from stakeholders is being sought to further refine and validate this framework.
Participants are invited to complete a voluntary, anonymous online survey, which is expected to take approximately 10-15 minutes.
For participation information please click here or scan the QR code below to access the survey.
The research is being conducted by a collaboration between Dr Robbie King (Australian Catholic University), A/Prof Nigel Barr (University of the Sunshine Coast) and Dr Angela Martin (Edith Cowan University). For further enquiries, please email the research team at Robbie.king@acu.edu.au
