Senior Tutor
Kathryn started off in Nursing and learned quickly that she loved the unpredictable nature of the A&E department. A few years later she joined the Yorkshire Ambulance Service, initially training as an EMT but later becoming a Paramedic. She currently works as a Paramedic covering events such as Fell Races, Triathlons, Moto X, down hilling and Trail Races. She is also a Repatriation Medic which can be stressful working remotely on your own, but a role she finds very rewarding.
