    Confused about EMT recertification in California..please help

    Thanks guys! I had no idea you didn't need to have NREMT recertification, I just automatically went there for renewal. Around how much do the refresher courses cost if I am not affiliated with the organization? Should I just cold call the list of training programs on the LA website?

    Interviews for PRN and Mercy Ambulance in Socal?

    Hi! This week I was contacted for an interview for both PRN and Mercy ambulance in Los Angeles. I'm a full time student, so I can only do 15-20 hours a week at most. PRN said they had no minimum part time requirement, so that was encouraging. How much does each company pay? Any other...
