Paramedic training in PG?
PRINCE GEORGE – As with every community across the province, there is a dire shortage of paramedics, whether it’s medical paramedics or industrial paramedics. And they are a bit different. And community futures of Fraser for George is looking to weigh in on a matter of training paramedics.
In a letter of support, Community Futures writes: “… with increasing homeless and addiction issues in Prince George, our current paramedics are having to work an increasing number of hours to ensure medical response is available to those in need. Having more trained paramedics will ease the burden on these professionals and increase lifesaving response time.”
