Creating virtual communities of practice for ambulance paramedics: a qualitative evaluation of the use of Project ECHO in end-of-life-care.

Paramedics operate across large geographical areas, meaning education delivery is challenging. Yorkshire Ambulance Service implemented Project Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes (ECHO), which is the creation of virtual communities of practice to address this problem and increase access to specialist supervision, education and sharing of practice. We undertook a service evaluation of the programme and interviewed paramedics about their experiences with ECHO.
