„Erschreckende“ Situation ist, dass verurteilte Sexualstraftäter unter Kriminellen frei sind, als Sanitäter zu arbeiten

This is absolutely outrageous. We have convicted sex offenders still legally allowed to work as paramedics because the regulator has no power to suspend them, no mandatory reporting of convictions, and no proper fitness to practise system. PHECC begged the Minister to fix this months ago and got silence.

Add in unregulated “specialist paramedics” and the fact that half of female paramedics surveyed reported sexual harassment, and it’s clear the system is completely broken.

This isn’t a minor oversight it’s a massive failure of public safety and political responsibility. Patients deserve better than this

What the actual fuck

This is horrific. You’re probably at your most vulnerable when needing an ambulance! I don’t understand how this is allowed. How are paramedics not like CORU registered professionals? That are Garda vetted, have minimum qualifications & where there is a fitness to practice route. Genuinely don’t understand how this has been allowed.
