Paramedic Critical Care, under the direction of the Operational Medical Director, performs care appropriate to the patient population served and meets routine and life-threatening patient care needs. The Paramedic Critical Care may be required to respond under routine or emergency conditions; assess the scene for hazards; triage multiple patients, especially in mass casualty situations; provide assessment, stabilization and treatment of life-threatening conditions utilizing skills within the Paramedic scope of practice, and within the protocols set forth by the Operational Medical Director. The Paramedic Critical Care will also provide routine, non-emergent care and transportation to patients as needed by ambulance.
