All AMS within my state = automatic transport for BLS units unless the PT requests ROS. At that time, you contact med control and let them decide what to do... I don't necessarily agree with it, but it is what it is..

Hey guys, I'll be moving to the Rochester area in the next few months, so I'm looking for some places hiring EMT-B/firefighters. Do you guys know of anyone beyond Rural/metro and Monroe ems? I wouldn't mind work for a private practice either, or as an ER tech. However, the later two seem to be...
