Karilyn Mahon

I have worked as an Advanced Care Paramedic with QAS for six and a half years, and have been committed to providing a professional and focused approach to patient care. I enjoy working within a team environment to advocate for the best patient outcomes and ensure availability for community response, however I also enjoy the opportunity to work independently as a single officer when required. I have spent my paramedic career focusing on consolidating and building my clinical skills and approach to patient care, and have participated in simulated multi casualty and diaster response scenarios to enhance my skills. I have been passionate about joining the USAR team since the beginning of my career with QAS, and feel that my previous time working an Emergency Response Team, as well as the skills I have developed in my time as a Paramedic has provided me with a strong foundation to join the USAR team.
