I am training as a Student Paramedic currently. What roles would be best suited following this kind of job?
Although I'll have a foundation of medical knowledge will I be required to start training as if I had didn't know anything?

Also, once I've finished my course will I be able to join the army as a medic straight away as I will be fully qualified?

Hi Georgia, there are lots of medical roles, the closest is probably the combat medical technician, although they will be fully trained when they start. You can see more medicla roles here: https://apply.army.mod.uk/roles/army-medical-service

Hi! Thankyou for your message. I have just had a look! So even when I've become a qualified paramedic would need to fully train to become a combat medical technician?
