Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether ambulance staff are provided with training on the potential impact of the practice of chemsex on patients.

Ambulance staff are trained to respond to a wide range of drug related presentations, which may include chemsex. Standards of proficiency, conduct and performance of registered professionals such as paramedics are the responsibility of independent healthcare regulators rather than Government. In the case of paramedics, this is the Health and Care Professions Council.
