Alternatives to paramedic career with health restrictions?

Hi! 😊 If health issues (like epilepsy) mean you can’t become a paramedic, what other NHS or healthcare careers have people gone into? Are there roles similar in impact/support that don’t have strict medical requirements? Would love advice or personal stories!

Is there a particular aspect of the paramedic role that means you can't become one (e.g. C1 licence)?
