My husband has been a Paramedic for 4 years in uk now and we are looking into moving over to Queensland. There are so many sites to read and we just dont really now where to start.
We have 3 kids aged 15, 13 and 8 who all want to move too.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated and websites etc. Where and how to apply for a Paramedic job too.

Many thanks

Lou

Was about $20,000.00AUD to apply-No Training available "On the Job"
This should help;
Doing 3 years with no pay,as well as paying $20,000.00 to apply with a rewarding wage of $50,000.00 PA ended my forthcoming career.
