I need to take an Ethics course for my degree in Paramedicine and I can either take Applied Ethics or Bioethics, which one would you say would suit this career better?

Check out the syllabi. My Biomedical Ethics course was really about the principles of medical ethics, but this was at a college with a moderately-sized philosophy department. Applied ethics is apparently a general term that encompasses bioethics and the ethics of other disciplines and situations.
A great deal of current bioethics is based around medicine, but it tends to be the pretty fancy end of medicine. Like I said very interesting stuff but maybe not quite as useful to a pre hospital medical provider. MrConspiracy is right though look at the syllabi and see exactly what they cover.
