Alyesha Proctor

Advanced Paramedic Practitioner and Independent Prescriber

Alyesha Proctor is an advanced paramedic practitioner and independent prescriber working in general practice. Alyesha is also a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy and previously worked as a senior lecturer in Paramedic Science at the University of the West of England. Alyesha received a National Institute for Health and Care Research Clinical Doctoral Research Fellowship to develop an intervention to support paramedics to safely assess and manage children with minor head injury. She has a passion for all aspects of prehospital care and her particular interests include the clinical decision-making processes that occur in the out-of-hospital setting, the interfaces between primary, second­ary and ambulance care, the evaluation of prehospital interventions to reduce avoidable conveyance and the impact of multidisciplinary teams in primary care. Alyesha has a keen interest in sexual health and contraception, as increasingly primary care practitioners are expected to have generalist knowledge on a range of sexual health and contraception issues. She is currently undertaking her Faculty of Sexual and Reproductive Health Diploma.
