Paramedic accompanying
What is an accompanying paramedic service?
Paramedic Companion is a service provided for those interested in close medical support that provides a quick and professional response. The importance of receiving quick and professional medical treatment as close as possible to the time of injury or illness is extremely high and can sometimes be the difference between life and death.
How to choose a paramedic companion
When choosing an accompanying paramedic, it is important to make sure of several things.
First, it is important to make sure that the paramedic does indeed have a valid license and that he meets the basic requirements of the Ministry of Health to conduct ACLS (Advanced Cardiac Life Support) and PHTLS (Patient Trauma Care) training at least once every two years.
Additionally, it is important to check on behalf of which body he is acting. Paramedics in Israel do not have the authority to act on their own behalf and must act solely under the direction of a supervising physician.
Another important and critical thing to check is whether the paramedic has medical insurance. Since this is a matter of personal injury, injury, and illness law, legal claims in these areas involve extremely high amounts of money, and if the paramedic stands trial without insurance behind him, there may be no one who can pay for the trial and its results.
These requirements of valid certificates, professional insurance, and a supervising physician are the basic requirements for a paramedic to be able to accompany you.
Additional criteria that are important to consider are the paramedic's experience, his level of training, and the number of years he has been in the field.

A paramedic without extensive experience will not provide the quality response that an experienced paramedic can achieve. Paramedics are responsible for providing solutions in stressful and difficult situations. Without extensive experience, it is difficult to achieve perfect results in emergency situations.
