I have a question for you!

Only one way to find out... I don't know what your abilities are or if your doctor says you can life the gurney, but that's a you decision. I will also say, if you can't handle the physical aspects of the job, then this might not be the field for you. But I would definitely make that your first question to ask the program director before you pay for the course.

3 semesters for the Bridge Program. If accepted, I would begin in Jan. 2022 and for that semester Spring 2022 it would all be online. The Fall 2022 semester is about 2 days a week. I could finish school Spring 2023. I would have to retire in the Summer of 2022 and be ready to commit more time etc. Tough decision for me to quit a job paying 6 digits to draw retirement to go to go for my RN.

I am mandatory retirement in 6 years and I know I will have to continue working somewhere. Currently I am not in a dedicated EMS/Fire field.

Hi Ocean711, I was reading your helpful posts and I was wondering what you ended up doing. Did you get a job with the fire dept? Thanks!

Hi,
I have passed the NREMT and I am state licensed.
Being new I have lots of questions and I feel it’s hard to find answers.
I am in the central Florida area and I was wondering the best way to even start looking for a job and where.
Should I go private company? Or should I just try and do 911 , or would that be too far fetched and too hard to achieve. in the mean time, I need part time.

Hello, nwhitney!

My name is Noah and I am brand new to this forum. I live in Beaverton, OR right now and am interested in someday being a PA and using EMT experience as a stepping stone into PA school! I would love to pick your brain a bit and learn more about what EMS is like in the Portland area!

The last medic we hired here met the minimum and that’s about it. Other bases will have more competition based on location etc.

There’s also a benefit to putting in time going to units and making an impression before an opening becomes available. They can get a better feel for you over time compared to a 30 minute interview.

Hopefully I answered more questions than I caused.

Good evening,
I saw your post on June 18th 2020 regarding your desire to work overseas. Did you get any feedbacks?
Best

Hey Jim, I saw all your posts about the Glendale FD Ambulance Operator position! I’m thinking about applying there as my first EMT job. It says on their website that after the hiring process, which you said took 6-9 months, they send you to the Academy. Is that the same experience you had too? Thanks!

Parasite,
I'm an up-and-coming student who's about to complete their EMT-B cert in NC here shortly. I've noticed you've commented on Wake County's EMS System and wanted to know if you had any advice or insight for theirs and/or Johnston County's EMS Agency. Point being, following my State certification, I'm looking to pursue a career in the industry so I'm seeking any and all advice you're willing to offer.
