I'm an EMT in Los Angeles County, CA. My state card expired just over a month ago. I've taken the 24 hour EMT refresher course with skills verification and the 2011 LA Scope of Practice and have all my copies and fee ready to take to the County EMS Agency to recert. However, my hang up is a question on the form that asks if you are currently employed as an EMT or not, and if so, your agency name and contact info.
The problem is that I have been working as an EMT on the ambulance responding to and transporting calls. If I admit to doing so, will that create a flag in the system and get me and/or my employer in trouble with the county?? If I lie and say no, will that be viewable in a background (like say for a fire department) and create a disconnect with work history on a resume that'll just get me in (even more) trouble later on down the road?
