Struggling with ambulance paperwork, PRFs, or knowing how to document professionally on placement? The PocketClinician Paperwork Writing Guide is a pocket-sized A6 booklet designed to help UK student paramedics write clearer, safer, and more professional patient documentation on shift.
Documentation is one of the most important skills in pre-hospital care — yet one of the least confidently taught. This guide breaks down exactly how to structure ambulance paperwork, document patient assessments clearly, and avoid the common mistakes that lose marks on placement and OSCEs.
Designed for real frontline ambulance practice, this 20-page guide fits easily into your work bag, making it the perfect reference tool to use in between jobs, after patient handovers, or whilst completing PRFs on placement.
Inside the guide, you’ll learn:
Why documentation matters in pre-hospital care
The anatomy of a Patient Report Form (PRF)
10 golden rules of professional documentation
How to write concise, clinically relevant notes
How to document a secondary survey
Documenting mental capacity correctly
Common mistakes and what not to write
Common ambulance abbreviations
This guide is designed to help you sound more professional, improve clinical communication, and document in a way that protects both you and your patient.

Perfect for:
Student paramedics
Ambulance placement
PRF writing practice
Paramedic OSCE revision
Patient assessment documentation
