In my former NHS role I had regular involvements with most of those groups & know multiple nurse pracs & paramedics that I knew from the ward bases. Both Mental & General Health trained. Several had also stints with the Prison Service before returning.Mental health , adult social care, maternity services , district nurses, gp , ooh gp and care line all have the ambulance service as their default when they can’t cope or don’t want to manage the complexity of working in multi disciplinary community services. That’s why so many of ambulance staff now work in Those services.
Most gp surgeries have paramedics down here. I know 1 that has 6 as they can’t recruit GPs or nurses. I’ve worked in primary care and home treatment teams now for 7 yrs and Only do the occasional shift in green .
