The statistic presents the total number of employed and self-employed paramedics in the United Kingdom (UK) annually from 2010 to 2018. The number of paramedics working in the United Kingdom has fluctuated over the period concerned. In 2010 there were 19 thousand paramedics employed in the UK. This figure increased to 32 thousand in 2013 before falling to 26 thousand paramedics in employment in 2018. Paramedics often work on the frontline of patient care in the UK. They respond to 999 and 111 emergency calls and are thus trained in different aspects of emergency medicine from cardiac arrests, strokes, spinal injuries and varying degrees of trauma. The majority of paramedics in the UK work for the National Health Service (NHS) ambulance services as part of an emergency response team with an ambulance technician and/or emergency care assistant.
