Paramedicine has evolved over recent years and is building on its university education base and national health practitioner registration to provide care broadly across the community. 

Paramedicine is increasingly active in primary and community health settings with programs supporting or providing palliative care in community being described across the national and international literature. This presentation will describe the evolution of paramedicine in the Australian context and focus on the provision of palliative and end of life care by paramedics.
