I'm 17, and I'm really interested in becoming a paramedic. I was thinking about joining the explorers program in my area (Greenville County, SC), and I was wondering if anyone here could tell me what to expect. I know some things, but I don't know alot. Such as what to expect on ride alongs, what I'd be "allowed" to do, and stuff like that. Also, I graduate next spring, so where would I go from there to become a paramedic? I know I need to be certified as an EMT-B and EMT-I first, so how long would that take, and does it really matter where I do that? I was thinking just the local technical school, but idk.
Lots of questions, any help is appreciated!
