Council members are appointed by the Minister for Health on the basis of their involvement and expertise in pre-hospital emergency care. The Council is advised and assisted by Standing Committees and Working Groups made up of Council members,health industry and community partners.


We regulate pre-hospital emergency care in the Ireland and were set up to protect the public. We maintain a register of professionals who meet our standards for their training and professional skills. Pre-hospital emergency care practitioners registered with us meet national standards.
