## Summary

The Ministry of Defence is overseeing a procurement process for the provision of Ambulance Clinical Placements under the title "For the Provision of PHEC Clinical Placements for Cohort 2 of Defence Medic (DM) Programme Delivered by DCHET". This initiative falls within the education and training services category and is designated for the South East region of the United Kingdom. The procurement method utilised is a selective process, specifically a restricted procedure. The tender had a closing date of 14th October 2015, with the contract period running from 19th October 2015 to 10th June 2016, and is valued at £62,040.

This tender presents a valuable opportunity for businesses involved in healthcare training and ambulance services, particularly those capable of providing clinical placements in line with Defence Medical Service requirements. Companies specialising in emergency medical training and possessing suitable partnerships with NHS Ambulance Trusts would be well-positioned to compete. The requirement for placements in a Pre-Hospital Emergency Care (PHEC) setting underscores the necessity for qualified providers to collaborate with Health Education England and the Association of Ambulance Chief Executives to effectively deliver these services.

## Notice

For the provision of up to 47 Ambulance Clinical Placements with NHS Ambulance Trusts. Health Education England (HEE) is mandated by the Government to work with the MOD 'to enhance the existing capability of the Defence Medical Service either through up-skilling of the existing workforce or by supporting the training of new entrants'. An EMT award is considered by HEE and the DMS to be most appropriate and is achieved through an 8 week didactic course and 750 hours (20 wks) of clinical practice placements, of which not less than 15wks must be in a Pre-Hospital Emergency Care (PHEC) setting. There are no suitable military units in which to conduct the PHEC clinical practice placements, so these will have to be undertaken within Ambulance Trusts. In order for Defence Medics to access training placements within every Ambulance Trust, they must have a level of competence acceptable to them all. Access to ambulance placements will be achieved through a top level agreement with Health Education England and the Association of Ambulance Chief Executives (AACE) who will liaise and broker placements with the individual Ambulance Trusts across the UK in support of the new Defence Medic programme.
