Student paramedic 2024

Well to be host whit you I now people that are still125 on the last panel so the chances is all departdent on how many clas are run and how many people defer/don't take it

Got the letter today saying congrats im on the panel but about number 230... im guessing I can forget this dream?🤣

Would it be fair to say if we make this panel we could be starting training in Sept 25 or is that unrealistic 🙈

Approx 30 people in a class. They were taking in two groups in each centre ( three centres) twice a year up to this year. This September they only called one group who haven't been given contracts yet as they have a funding shoetfall this year. So at best they would take in approx 180 in a year. Find out what your position is on the overall panel not just the competition panel and you might make a guess then when you might be called.

Don’t lose out hope you passed and that’s the main thing, there are people on the panel from last June campaign and ones from before still waiting. With the recruitment freeze being lifted too hopefully the new year will be back to full training capacity. Get working on you C licence ect while you have the time one less thing to focus on when you are actively a student.

I’ve not done it myself yet but you can email apply support apparently. Yeah it would be higher because you are kinda added to the left overs of all the panels before.

@Chemicals404. Congratulations on getting placed. I am sitting on the panel from last year and we haven't heard a peep as of yet with regards eoi's coming down the line but I CAN tell you that our panel is due to expire in November. We were informed ahead of your recruitment drive that the HSE can extend a panel for 1 year in certain circumstances but they gave no indication whether they will extend it or not come November. All we can do is wait and see I'm afraid.

hi, your over all panel number is subject to change as candidates make themselves active as far as I’m aware .

@xpxo010 hey! Yes I emailed them on the 14th also and got the same response… going to be a short timeframe now when we receive our contracts to when we will start :/

@taramc95 last year the start date was like the 22nd of January so might be the same this year.. there isn’t any way of knowing though until the EOIs are sent out which could be mid September time

Contracts are out today for those starting on 2/9/24 in Ballinsloe.. congratulations to those who have received theirs 👏🏼👏🏼
