Paramedic Duties & Salary in Australia

In Australia, paramedics play a crucial role in the healthcare system. They are highly trained professionals responsible for responding to medical emergencies, providing on-the-spot medical care, and transporting patients to hospitals or other healthcare facilities. Paramedics are often the first healthcare providers on the scene and must assess and stabilize patients, administer medications, and perform life-saving procedures as needed. They work in various settings, including urban areas like Sydney and Melbourne, as well as remote regions like the Australian Outback, where access to medical care can be challenging.

Exciting Fact: Paramedics in Australia are known for their exceptional skills in dealing with venomous snake bites. Australia is home to some of the world's deadliest snakes, and paramedics receive specialized training to treat snakebite victims promptly.

Key Skills and Experience: To become a paramedic in Australia, individuals typically need a Bachelor of Paramedicine degree or equivalent. They must possess strong communication skills, quick decision-making abilities, and physical fitness. In some regions, such as New South Wales, paramedics can also administer certain medications and perform advanced procedures.

Salary Range: Paramedics in Australia can earn an annual salary ranging from AUD 60,000 to AUD 90,000, depending on their level of experience and the region they work in. The hourly rate for paramedics varies but is generally between AUD 30 to AUD 45 per hour.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if someone gives me an unfair review?

There are two sides to every story. We allow everyone to respond once to any feedback if required. We believe an eloquent and sincere response will always help future customers to identifying the true story.

What makes a great gig listing?

The gig is a defined task, with a pre-determined outcome. If you ensure your scope of expected work is detailed, with a level of quality specified, this will reduce any miscommunication/misinterpretation when gig workers review.

Are there any fees associated to cancellations, refunds and disputes?

See our terms & conditions relating to fees in our pay section on the Help Centre.

Why are we so much cheaper than competitor sites?

We are founded and developed by gig workers of the NZ economy. We passionately care about driving down the cost of business and increasing opportunities for all. We have developed a platform we believe can do this for you. We hope by creating a marketplace combing all ways of working and advertising, along with working and designing smarter, we can reduce our costs, so we don’t have to offset them onto you. We call that empowering the win-win. For more information see our fair pricing policy.

What is the difference between a gig and a job?

A gig is a pre-defined task (or set of tasks) that has a specific expected outcome. On the gig exchange, it is FREE to list a gig under the services section. Services are fixed price or negotiable. Workers are selected based on services, availability, reputation & price. The money is withheld independently through our leading global Payment provider Stripe escrow account. Payment is only released upon satisfactory completion. Feedback is given by both parties to build marketplace reputation.
