Hi there, just hit two years as a paramedic in one of those busy 911 systems near Los Angeles county. I’m pretty tired of the crappy pay that comes with 911 out here. I’m trying to figure out what my next step it, but my problem is that I have no desire to be a firefighter and I can’t move from...

Again, thank you for the input but I’m really just looking for a care medics input. I’ve put a lot of thought into moving from 911 to ifts and I need to be making more money.

i guess it depends on where you work and your protocols. in la county everytime i've called als it's never taken over 10 minutes, usually around 5 minutes. i'd rather work the pt for 5-10 minutes with good quality 2 man cpr and have als come to give the pt everything the er would give them in a...
