ARU Blogs — Oliver Cubitt

Hi, I’m Oli and I am in my first year of the BSc Paramedic Science programme at our Cambridge campus. At 18 I am one of the youngest on the course but I have not found that this has caused any issues – all 30 of us get on like a big family (yes I know it’s an overused cliché). In what little free time I have from university and clinical placements I fence with the university club, play trombone and get involved in scouting activities with the Cambridge University Scout and Guide Club.

In this blog I will mainly be focusing on what I experience during my clinical placements with the ambulance service, because let’s face it – if you are reading a student paramedic’s blog that’s the stuff you want to hear about most of all.
