Description
An account of the resource
Paediatric Palliative Care Ambulance Plans ('Plans') are used by New South Wales Ambulance (Australia) to support the care needs of children with life-limiting conditions. We aimed to describe the population of children with Plans and provide details regarding Plan completion, paramedic responses during ambulance callouts, and correspondence between Plan recommendations and paramedic responses. Plans lodged in January 2017-December 2019 were retrospectively coded for demographic information, completeness and care preferences. Associated paramedic callout notes (January 2018-December 2019) were coded for paramedic responses. Of 141 Plans retrieved, 38 (41.3% of those providing suggested medications) suggested medication use outside general paramedic scope of practice. Of 199 associated ambulance callouts, reasons for callout included symptom management, planned transfer, death notification and end-of-life care. Over two-thirds of callouts (n = 135, 67.8%) occurred after-hours. Most paramedic callouts (n = 124, 62.3%), excluding planned transfers, resulted in children being transported. Paramedic interventions corresponded with interventions suggested in Plans. However, only 24 (25.3%) of paramedic callout notes documented Plans being sighted. This study provided detailed information about children with palliative care needs for whom Plans were being used, the nature of these Plans and associated paramedic callouts. However, it is not known how paramedics were influenced by Plans.

Description
An account of the resource
Background: Pediatric palliative care occurs across contexts through the child's illness trajectory, including within the child or young person's community. Interactions with the ambulance service may occur with a child's deterioration, crisis, or when needing transfer, but there is little research on this interaction. Aim: To explore the experiences and attitudes of ambulance officers in managing pediatric patients with palliative care needs. Design: A targeted e-mail survey was sent exploring perceptions of the involvement with these patients including exposure, comfort, resuscitation topics, and supports available. Setting/Participants: Participants were Queensland ambulance officers known to have had an interaction with one of the last 50 pediatric palliative care referrals across Queensland. Results: Twenty-two survey responses were received. Most of the palliative group accessed ambulances for the 13-month study period. Most ambulance officers did not easily identify patients as receiving palliative care. Many participants felt these cases were challenging, confidence levels varied, and staff counselling services were felt to be relevant. Ambulance officers were most likely to use correspondence provided by the family from their usual team as a guide for emergency management. Half of the participants felt patients receiving pediatric palliative care should have a "not for resuscitation" order. Respondents suggested officer support could be improved through increased patient documentation and promotion of existing officer supports. Conclusions: These findings demonstrate challenges experienced by ambulance officers and suggest practical ways in which pediatric palliative care services can better support emergency services.
