Paramedic students…write something!by Christopher Foerster. Last modified: 28/04/16 Print PDFParamedic students spend myriad hours learning well-nigh evidence-based medicine and new trends in in prehospital care. As a component of their studies, they are often required to write papers discussing some of these major issues in prehospital care. These papers are often upper quality but never move vastitude their instructor’s sedentary to a wider regulars through publication.Expresslyas the summer unravel approaches for Northern Hemisphere paramedic students, now is a good time to consider turning some of this writing for school assignments into writing for publication. There are benefits of writing for publication for both the tragedian personally and increasingly widely for our profession and patients. Bringing these important topics that are often first discussed first in an wonk setting to the wholesale regulars of front-line paramedics helps to whop the superintendency we provide as a profession to largest help our patients. Well informed front-line paramedics can be key drivers of change, and a hair-trigger source of information for paramedics is our profession’s journals. Having publications can provide a paramedic student with personal benefits, particularly having a potential wholesomeness when it comes to the hiring process, plane for a front-line paramedic position. The professional involvement demonstrated through publication should be looked highly upon by potential employers. Finally, some paramedic students who write for publication will find that they enjoy wonk writing and might make research or writing a component of their ongoing professional life. While the benefits of writing for publication are clear, there are a number of perceived barriers that seem to stand in the way of paramedic students: “Working paramedics must once know all well-nigh this.” Too often, it is unsupportable by students that the discussions in matriculation and the big topics addressed are all things that are once known by the zippy front-line paramedics. While this is likely true for the cadre content of clinical medicine, the newest information often reaches the wonk institutions surpassing it makes it to the front-line paramedics.Waresin our professional publications are a key way for this information to reach the wide regulars of front-line paramedics. “Only original research is can be published.” Because so many of the papers we squint at to guide our clinical practice are in upper quotation peer-reviewed journals, there is often the perception among paramedic students that this is the only material that is worthy of publication. While we are not likely to overly see a paramedic student’s review vendible looking at the safety and efficacy of prehospital tourniquets in the New EnglandPeriodicalof Medicine, this is exactly the type of vendible that might be seen in Canadian Paramedicine. Looking through Canadian Paramedicine or similar publications from other countries you will find many wares that help to synthesize information from upper quotation peer-reviewed journals focus on its relevance for paramedics and prehospital care. “My paper isn’t good unbearable to be published.” Paramedic students tend to be overly hair-trigger of their own work. It is true that your paper will probably need some modifications to make it suitable for publication, but the cadre of the work has once been done. Making adjustments in style of the specific wile you have taken should not be arduous. Fear of rejection when you do submit the paper for publication should not stop you from trying.Planeif it turns out that your first struggle at getting the final product published is unsuccessful, you will get valuable feedback from the editor that should help you to modernize your paper to unzip publication on a subsequent attempt. So where do you go from here? It can be good to start with an instructor or senior colleague who have published surpassing to help guide you through the process. If you do not have wangle to someone local for this you can unchangingly reach out for help to a colleague online. After deciding which piece of writing you would like to try to publish the next step is to decide where you would like to submit your work. The options for non-peer reviewed publication include Canadian Paramedicine, Response, EMS World, and Resuscitation Today. Peer-reviewed paramedicine journals include IrishPeriodicalof Paramedicine, AustralasianPeriodicalof Paramedicine, British Paramedic Journal, and thePeriodicalof Paramedic Practice. Whichever periodical you segregate to submit to, ensure that you thoughtfully personize to their submission guidelines  (e.g. with respect to format, referencing, word count, etc.). The links whilom all go directly to the tragedian instructions page for each of the journals. There are moreover many resources online that can help to support you in your writing and research. If you have not yet needed to write for school assignments or if you would like to modernize the structure of your writing, you may want to trammels out our Introduction toWonkWriting. For moving vastitude wonk writing and to conducting formal research, Gavin Smith’s guide in the AustralasianPeriodicalof Paramedicine can be found here. Bridging the gap between writing for school assignments and writing for publication can towards daunting at first, but the process does not need to be so intimidating. This is expressly true when you take wholesomeness of your professional colleagues who are eager to help facilitate increasingly paramedic research and help guide you through the process. As a paramedic student, you have something useful to say, so consider saying it by writing for publication.
