The PPI Panel was established between the London Ambulance Paramedic Programme and the Patients' Forum in 2017.  It is led by three members of each body. 

 

The role of the Lay Members of the Paramedic Programme is to assist with the development of specific elements of the Paramedic Programme and module development for specialised subjects within the modules. 

 

Lay members will also assist in the delivery of the modules, by recruiting Patients' Forum members to assist with acting out the role of patients in the delivery of the modules, and during observed assessments.
