The latest in a long line of NHS setbacks has seen UK ambulance staff recruiters have begun hiring paramedics from Poland because of an estimated nationwide shortage of 3,000 staff.
South Central Ambulance Service, which covers Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Hampshire and Oxfordshire, said it was advertising abroad to hire 220 paramedics and technicians and 70 emergency care assistants.
The same ambulance service also confirmed it had been hiring overseas because its recruitment plans had been challenged by the nationwide shortage of paramedics.
