Irish College of Paramedics

The Irish College of Paramedics (ICoP) is a professional body, concerned with the development and promotion of our profession. It is not based on the organisation you work or volunteer for, but based on an all-inclusive non-discriminatory membership. It is not a college, not a university, but ‘collegial’ defined as: ‘Co-operative interaction among colleagues’ or a group of professionals working for our profession.

ICoP represents the profession, and includes all levels of registered pre-hospital practitioner. As well as registered practitioners: "EMTs, Paramedics, Advanced Paramedics" our membership includes associate members: all those with a ‘pre-hospital’ interest, and is not restricted to registrants only. It is an all-encompassing body representing practitioners and responders from professional, voluntary and private organisations.
