64-year-old qualifies to become paramedic
A 64-year-old graduate who has qualified to become a paramedic says he will keep going as long as he "can stand it".
He was among about 200 students finishing a paramedic science course, many of whom had already begun work. Among those graduating in Carlisle were those progressing from other trust roles, including care assistants. "We'll carry on going as long as we can stand it and deal with patients, so I suspect I'll be carried out, rather than walk out."Graduate Kate Burns, who worked as an emergency care assistant, said she was looking for another way to "support" her family."I decided to put my family first [but] I've had my family... so I decided to go forward and do my degree so I can support [them] while learning and getting the dream job I've always wanted.
