Seeking info about Boston area EMS

[DrStonehands]

Hi all,

I'm newly certified in EMT-B and I'm exploring my options for employment. I was hoping some here may have advice or info on working EMS in the Boston area.

Thanks,
DrS

I did some of my field internship at pro EMS in Cambridge . It was a great experience. Not sure if they are currently hiring though.

I do not live in MA anymore but I got my start there.

My first ambulance job was with Brewster. It was a great place to work just starting out since they want to train people in the "Brewster Way." Excellent equipment, somewhat decent pay, and the ability to work in a variety of places. The 911 contracts operate with double medic dedicated trucks but I still took plenty of Boston EMS backup and Nursing Home 911 calls on my BLS truck.
