As a volunteer in the ER, I must say I like that answer very much, since we tend to get ignored most of the time. :P

I was asked about applying restraints and transporting with pre-existing medical interventions.

I got an email today saying that Pacific is hiring right now, so get an app in ASAP!

Rural/Metro is hiring...their online app is open. Go for it!

Well I'm glad they don't discriminate! :rolleyes:

Yeah, I'm thinking about putting an app in. I've heard mixed reviews though. Some say it's horrible, while others say it's fine. But I suppose all places are like that though. :) I've got an app in with Pacific and Balboa at the moment. Fingers crossed. And good luck to you as well!

I'm looking as well, but I do volunteer in Alvarado's ER. I don't really get to do anything, but it keeps me in the game.

Me too. But I still thought I'd offer. :P

I know ER is hiring....and they tend to do part time hiring. And MaxCare might be.

Is it worth asking how exactly you managed to do that to yourself?!

Um, I just applied to Pacific yesterday. Why would flying under the radar be a good skill? If I'm walking into something, please, for all that is holy, let me know. But one thing I do know is R/M is having some HR turnover right now, so it may be a while until they're hiring again. I'm not...

Yep. You need to be an EMT-B. I think there's a 1 yr experience thing, but let me ask around and see how strictly they enforce that. Here's a link to the posting: https://www.plaksa.com/showempjob.htm?viewId=U9h2vvYJ4pM%3D

I know you might not want to hear this, but Alvarado Hospital is hiring ER techs...:) That's where I am at the moment. Otherwise, I'm kind of out of the loop on ambulance gigs.

I finally got a copy today...and it was from Miramar. I tried County, but they were out of stock. So as of earlier today, it is possible to get one from Miramar's bookstore. And it looked like they had a good supply of them. :)

Sometimes Miramar College's bookstore has them. That's were I got mine once. I'd call them and check, since dealing with County EMS is almost as bad as dealing with the DMV.

Awww I'm sorry! That sucks! And there's not much you can do if your size is the problem. :(

Fingers crossed! :)

Know your protocol for transporting with established interventions! They asked me that one in the interview, not on the written test. But other than that, Monkey's got it. I don't have anything else to add. I'm not sure if they would ask about the new protocols, considering I have not been able...

Wow. So I got a call from Bayside today asking if I could come in tomorrow for an interview. It's been three months since I turned in that application! And probably just as long since I've looked over my EMT stuff! Crunch time!

Seems like there was a lot wrong with this situation. Thoughts? http://www.cnn.com/2011/US/06/01/california.drowning/index.html?iref=NS1
