The examination for the Diploma in Immediate Medical Care (DIMC) is designed to test the knowledge, skills and behaviours of pre-hospital emergency care practitioners. The level of performance expected is that commensurate with level 6 on in the Skills for Health Career Framework (www.skillsforhealth.org.uk). Level 6 practitioners have a comprehensive, specialised, factual and theoretical knowledge within day-to-day pre-hospital emergency care, clinical practice and awareness of the boundaries of that knowledge.
There is a focus within this examination on timely recognition, diagnosis and management of conditions and situations in the pre-hospital environment rather than on the use of facilities for investigation and treatment that may be available predominantly within a hospital. This examination includes prehospital emergency care for all patient age groups from neonates to the very elderly.
Multiple resources including detailed regulations, past questions and Sandpiper Bag guidance are available on the DIMC Exam page, RCSEd website.
All Faculty Examinations are administered by RCSEd's Exams Team. Exam enquiries can be directed to the team via email fphc.exams@rcsed.ac.uk
