A theory-practice gap has previously been proposed as existing in paramedic education. This proposal has been based on the literature, predominantly drawn from nursing, which describes the phenomenon as being a detrimental lack of congruence between the theory that is taught in the classroom and the experiences of students in the practice environment. This submission proposes, rather, that there is a 'paramedic praxis' where the relationship between theory and practice is such that the 'gaps' discussed in the nursing literature do not manifest in the same, potentially problematic, way.

No universal approach for application procedures has been established for paramedic curriculum programs. The field of pre-hospital, Emergency Medical Services (EMS) has evolved quickly from its inception to present date.

Predicting success in an allied health program typically concentrates on some type of academic instrument. The use of personality inventories has been underexplored; however, literature reveals they may be more reliable in determining academic and employment success co

This is a compressed time mode ethnographic approach study that incorporates data from student paramedics during and immediately after simulation learning events and tutor views of facilitating the simulation experience.

Furthermore, education appears to be a new form of hierarchical stigmatisation within the paramedic culture. The study facilitated the creation of a framework of paramedic CPD, which includes CPD models; PDP; reflective practices; and LLL. The framework

Abstract:

Outcome measurement is a necessary part of clinical practice. Using standardised measures, health professionals need to show that their interventions improve health outcomes (Laver-Fawcett, 2007). However, research shows that most allied health professionals are not using outcome measures. One explanation is that outcome measurement requires new knowledge, skills and attitudes, and considerable changes in behaviour. These changes can be difficult for many health professionals to achieve (Cusick and McCluskey, 2000; McCluskey, 2003; McCluskey and Lovarini, 2005). This thesis examines the nature
