Aimee Yarrington

Paramedic and Midwife

Aimee Yarrington has been a qualified midwife since 2003 and has worked in all areas of midwifery practice from the very high risk to the low-risk, standalone midwife-led units. She left full-time midwifery practice to join the ambulance service, always keeping her midwifery practice up to date. She joined as an emergency care assistant, working her way up to paramedic. After a short spell on the clinical support desk within the EOC, she took a secondment to the education and training department. She lectures at several universities on pre-hospital maternity care, as well as at many conferences and events, but also works closely with the Royal College of Paramedics. She currently works as a Home Birth Team midwife at Birmingham Women’s Hospital and as a Paramedic for West Midlands Ambulance Service.
