Hi All,
This came out a little long so I appreciate you taking the time to read and any advice you could spare!
A little background about me: I'm a newly certified EMT-B in Texas (DFW area).
I already have a full time career I'm not planing on changing that but I did my EMT course because I wanted to get the skill-set and volunteer in the field.
As it turns out, all the EMS around the metroplex is fire based, all ALS services and the very (very) few services out there that actually do have volunteers require you to be a firefighter volunteer first (not interested in that).
So, I thought I'd look at private EMS companies but all there is out there are IFT jobs and it feels like all I'll be doing is be a cab driver. I was hoping for some more "hands-on" patient interaction time.
During our clinicals I really enjoyed the ER time and felt very useful there so I was hoping if you could give me advice on how can I get a PRN job as an ER tech.
Where do you guys go to search for new jobs?
Any staffing agencies you'd recommend?
Thanks in advance!
