I've been interested in the EMS field for years now, and when I signed up for an EMT class I was excited that I would be finally able to follow that dream. When my boss came to me and said that he wouldn't be able to switch my schedule around and that I'd probably have to drop out of the class...

Hey all, I'm starting an EMT-B class within the month, but I'm keeping my eye on the ball and hoping to pursue my interest in fire and EMS as far as I can go. I want to get my paramedic certification, but I haven't been able to find anyone in Louisville that offers it. I know Spalding...

Hey all, I'm starting an EMT class next month and have been picking up some of the different supplies that are required. I stopped at a car accident tonight on the way home from work and called 911, got the people out of the middle of the road, etc. etc. Anyway, when I got back in my car I...

Hey all, I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations about what questions I should ask the school I'm considering taking my EMT classes at. I want to make sure they're perfectly reputable, etc. Any help would be appreciated.

Greetings everyone! Like I said in an earlier post, I'm graduating in May and looking to move some time afterwards. My girlfriend has applied to a few separate PhD programs across the Midwest and South, and since I'm interested in EMS I've been looking for jobs in the areas where she's applied...

Greetings everyone, I've posted on here a few times but for the most part I'm just a stalker, looking at everything people have posted. I've been interested in the emergency medical field for years, and I'm finally getting to a point in my life where I could have the time necessary to devote to...

Hey all, I was wondering if anyone on this forum has any comments in regards to various EMS companies or departments operating in St. Louis, Missouri. I've been looking into the potential of working there (I'm originally from St. Louis) and there seems to be a good mixture of groups--Abbott EMS...

Hey all, this is my first time posting but I've stalked the board for a while now. In any case, I had a question to ask. I'm not in the EMS field myself, but I've been interested for most of my life and I plan on trying to get into the field as soon as I graduate university. I'm not really...
