an intermediary crew (or 'intercrew'), which has the primary role of providing inter-facility transfers. This is broadly 'take-homes' between Jersey General Hospital and discharged patients' homes but may also involve transport to and from Jersey Airport. Patients may be taken to Jersey Airport where they require specialist care which cannot be provided at Jersey General Hospital and instead will be flown via the Jersey Emergency Transfer Service (JETS) to the UK to a more specialised hospital. Staff that crew the intermediary ambulance are trained to FREC-3 or FREC-4 levels and are only ever crewed on front line ambulances when a lack of staffing makes it necessary. Paramedics can progress to work as 'Leading Ambulance Paramedics' or LAPs who are bronze commanders for the service. LAP is a hybrid role of office-based and operational work. The LAP will be dispatched by the Combined Control Centre (CCC) to support ambulance crews at challenging or multi-agency scenes in a managerial or clinical capacity. LAPs are also deployable to emergencies where all other paramedic crews are unavailable. LAPs are supported by a Silver Duty Officer (SDO) who are deployable from office work to multiagency incidents, major incidents and to emergencies where all other paramedic crews and the LAP are unavailable.
