    Really getting discouraged...

    Don't get discouraged that it's taking this long to get hired. It took me about 7 months to get on with a company. Just keep trying and be persistant with places your applying to. Call those companys every week to check up on that status of your application or call every other week. Make visits...

    AMR Riverside

    AMR is not a bad company. They offer tons of CE opportunities, good benefits, tons of shifts that people give away atleast in San Diego they do, so plenty of opportunities for OT(which is a plus if you like that bank roll).

    Patient treatment when goes against your faith, or feelings, or whatever?

    Me personally i would treat the patient as i would treat any other pt no matter what there religion is. If you can avoid taking an article of clothing off then leave it on unless it interferes with your care of the pt. Patient care is patient care. Treat them with respect and explain that this...

    What should I do different...?

    newb to paramedic eventually.

    That's for sure. I volunteered at a hospital and i didn't do really anything the whole time i was there. It's good if you want to listen in on what is going on. I wouldn't recommend it though unless you have a lot of time on your hands and your really that bored. It can't hurt you to do it.

    Sketchy Ambulance Company?

    Hey my advice is if you have the address to the place go check it out before your actual interview. Go see if there are ambulances parked around where the address is.
