Expanding horizons for SAAS and ACAP
Do you like travelling and research? Are you interested in exploring different ways of improving systems for pre-hospital care delivery in SA? Are you a member of ACAP?
Then the ACAP SA Pre-Hospital Scholarship may be for you.
The ACAP SA Pre-Hospital Scholarship provides the opportunity, through the provision of financial support, for SAAS staff who are ACAP members to research a process or system currently being used in another organisation anywhere in the world for the ultimate benefit of SA Ambulance Service and the pre-hospital care profession.
This scholarship intends to empower staff to bring innovative ways of working back to SAAS and ACAP to share and potentially implement.
For more information check out the Rapid which was distributed to staff earlier this month or log onto the ACAP SA website. Applications close 30 June 2008.
For more information, see our Scholarships page, or contact Chris Cotton, ACAP SA chair on 0417 872 967 or email chair@sa.acap.org.au.
Did you know?
Rob Snell, operations manager, emergency preparedness, used a similar opportunity to travel to Sweden to learn more about the way their ambulance service used a version of EmergoTrain to prepare and train crews.
Rob has done a significant amount of work on the version he researched in Sweden, turning it into the comprehensive training package SAAS uses today.
