        "description": "The East of England Ambulance Service NHS Trust (EEAST) covers the six counties which make up the East of England - Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Norfolk and Suffolk and provides a range of services, but is best known for the 999 emergency service. Our dedicated and skilled staff work 365 days a year, 24 hours a day to make sure patients receive the best possible care. Our diverse area is spread over the 7,500 square miles and contains a mix of rural, coastal and urban areas - from Watford to Wisbech and Cromer Canvey Island. Our services are tailored to meet the needs of each community's differing environmental and medical needs. The Trust employs around 4,000 staff and 1,000 volunteers to deal with over 1,000,000 calls every year. Trust staff and volunteers are trained and experienced in caring for patients in a variety of situations, ranging from life-threatening illness and injury to less serious situations such as falls in the home or patients with minor injuries. In addition, the Trust handles more than 500,000 non-emergency patient journeys to and from routine hospital appointments. EEAST require 48 Associate Ambulance Practitioner (apprentice EMT) learners to start before the end of March 2019. The course provider must be approved to deliver the AAP programme on a full time basis. This should be through FutureQuals.
