Despite the upcoming workforce changes, there is currently no standard education framework to support the development of Advanced Paramedic Practitioners in primary care. This evaluation offers insight into the educational needs of Advanced Paramedic Practitioners working in this setting and suggests an education structure that can best support their learning, whilst meeting regulatory requirements for paramedic professional development. Formal research is required to determine any link between provision of education for Advanced Paramedic Practitioners in primary care and patient outcome and safety.
