Rotational Paramedic Model Impacting on Non-conveyance

Working in collaboration with the Urgent and Emergency Care theme we have evaluated whether paramedics who have rotated into primary care are non-conveying a higher proportion of patients than those who have not.

We determined the trend using interrupted time series and conducted a simple Cost Effectiveness analysis.
