Ambulance Services Sector
Our experience in your sector
Solutions was established in 1994 by Paul Meek a former Operations Director of an ambulance service. Paul’s knowledge and experience within the Ambulance community has been a key factor in Solutions being recognised as a market leader in the development and delivery of bespoke training solutions for emergency services (Police, Ambulance, CFR’s, Fire Brigade/Service, Cliff Rescue, Coastguard, Mountain Rescue, Lowland Rescue, Cave Rescue, Moorland Search and Rescue, and Air Ambulance).
Being at the forefront of our specialist subjects we also manufacture specialist manual handling equipment/aids designed to assist with the safe moving and handling of people.
Blended Learning Assets:
Many of our customers opt to utilise our unique e-learning programmes and/or access our filmed disengagement and pre-hospital moving & handling technique video clips to accompany their internal training strategy. These additional assets have been designed to complement classroom-based practical training sessions by teaching learners the required theory and underpinning knowledge of the topic before meeting with your internal trainers.
The addition of these optional assets has proven to significantly reduce training downtime and training costs (reducing face-to-face training by around half a day).
Our student paramedics completed Solutions online Moving People course and attended classroom training (blended learning) to learn the practical skills. The on-line learning was obviously effective as during the practical training sessions many parts of the on-line learning was quoted and referred to both by students and myself, which confirms to me that this type of blended learning has a big advantage.
