Medicare South East

Delivered by Medicare SouthEast — Qualsafe Registered Centre No. 908437

Unlock your potential. Build your career. Become the emergency response driver frontline services rely on.

At Medicare SouthEast, we don’t just train drivers — we develop elite emergency professionals.
We offer both:

• C1 Training & Test Preparation

• Level 3 CERAD™️ Emergency Response Ambulance Driving

These programmes give you the licence, skills, confidence and operational readiness required to drive safely, legally and effectively under emergency conditions — whether in an RRV, ambulance, or frontline response vehicle.

If you’re stepping into an NHS Ambulance Trust, Independent Ambulance Service, Voluntary Aid Society, or any frontline emergency response role…

📌 This is the training that sets you apart.
