Welcome to the University of Plymouth Paramedic Society!
We’re a student-led organisation aimed at student paramedics and anybody interested in prehospital healthcare. We aim to provide an enriching experience through simulations and clinical events led by specialists in the pre-hospital field, support each other as a group of aspiring healthcare professionals, and offer fun (and frequent!) socials to unwind from university stress.
But more importantly, ParaSoc has had an update.
With a new logo and new a new face, our new committee aim to bring even more to the table this year, with the introduction of student mentorship available to 3rd-year student paramedics. This would be a guiding and supportive role designed to aid new students or 2nd years as they transition into practising paramedic science and all its caveats. There’s no denying that pre-hospital healthcare is a stressful and emotionally charged specialism, and the ambulance service wouldn’t be here if those who work for it didn’t support each other. We want to start that chain of support from a fresher’s first day, to their last assignment in 3rd year.
We’re also are working on brand new merch behind the scenes to get it to you as soon as we can!
Members can also benefit from an exclusive discount for all of the following
-
Medisave: 10% off and free P&P, which is super handy for those buying their first stethoscope
-
Class Publishing: 25% off! Be it ambulance core skills, Anatomy and Physiology, or brushing up on complex medical presentations. Class publishing’s resources and textbooks contain invaluable information that will aid any aspiring healthcare student
-
Free Access to CPD events with certificates
Below is a selection of currently available merch! With more designs on the way soon!
Everything you need to keep a journal, clip your ID card to, stay hydrated, stay warm and something useful for the dark nights or the bottom of dark bags!
