David Rovardi is a dual qualified pharmacist and paramedic and is currently working as a Specialist Practitioner with EMAS. He also works one day a week for the College of Paramedics advising the College on the latest legislation within Prescribing and Medicines Management.

In this session Eoin speaks with David Rovardi around the current situation on prescribing rights for paramedics. There have been twists and turns of over 10 years and some of the key moments such as public consultation of CDs in 2014 and the turning point in legislation by the commission for human medicines in 2018.
