The paramedic practitioner role is arguably one of the hottest topics within our profession. With a focus on Victoria, in this episode of Advocacy in Conversation, College CEO John Bruning speaks with Dr David Anderson, Medical Director of Ambulance Victoria, Dr Brendan Shannon, Head of Postgraduate Programs in the Department of Paramedicine at Monash University, and Alecka Miles, course coordinator at Edith Cowan University, about the development of the course, interprofessional placements, role capability, legislation changes, role sustainability, the impact on person-centred care. And for those paramedics interested in pursuing this role, some tips on what might help you prepare for it. This is a must-listen podcast.    Credits:  Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):  https://uppbeat.io/t/nick-petrov/diving-in-the-sky    License code: 3U3MZPP0RFJHPAQW
