Response
Response is the premier general interest journal of Paramedics Australasia (PA). The journal is distributed quarterly to every PA member as part of their membership. Non-PA members can also subscribe to the journal.
Our readers consist of EMS professionals across Australia. Response aims to publish articles of direct relevance to paramedic and emergency medical care. This includes clinical issues, developments in pre-hospital care management, education and training, general research interest, profiles of key industry players, general news and commentary about the industry.
Response is evolving according to the needs of PA members. We are introducing some exciting new sections plus maintaining some well established components in the new-look journal. Articles will usually be placed in one of the following categories:
- Special Features
- Frontline – clinical issues
- Supporting the Frontline – management, OHS&W, communications, peer support,…etc.
- Case Reports – for clinical case discussions
- Education and Training
- International Scene – for news relating to international ambulance services

- Hot Spot – for information about latest technology or tools

We encourage any articles relating to these topics, as well as other interest articles. If you have something to say, why not jot us a line and share it with the EMS community? All submissions go to editor@paramedics.org.au.
All articles submitted to Response will go in the running for the Editor’s Choice prize awarded each edition. The prize is a $150 voucher to spend at the Paramedic Shop!
