Communicate effectively with patients, relatives and health professionals to assess symptoms, provide health advice, and support self-care when appropriate.
Return incidents to the dispatch queue with the appropriate emergency ambulance response.
Document clinical interactions accurately and promptly in electronic health records and designated triage platforms.
