well i finally got confirmation that i was hired onto AMR in riverside county. i took my drug test and physical agility test today, april 1st. it was basic with vision, hearing, and blood pressure/pulse, and a regular pee test. then i went to the chiropractic side and checked bp again and the stretched out and then it was on to the lifting. it wasnt heavy, but i am a big guy who weight lifts frequently, im about 6'4" and about 240. so 140 pounds for the last lifting test wasnt bad, but it was awkward to lift, so id say go in ready, especially if your not used to lifting much weight. so that was that. my whole process consisted of 2 interviews, a drug, and a agility test. and thats about it. i have my orientation in rancho on the 11nth of april assuming all goes well with drug test haha dont worry havent dont drugs, nor will i ever. but i just was reading through the internet about false positives and it got me thinking about how frequent they happen with everyday foods, because with AMR, it seems like you only have one chance. so wish me luck!

I know a couple people that work at riverside. No I haven't worked for palm springs. I haven't worked for any ambulance company because I am 3 months out of EMT school and only 9 months out of high school. I worked for a local fire department for 5 years. And I am really good friends with a well known medic out in palm springs. He quit and works for fire now but he is still well known. I just got done with an orientation today actually lol. I learned a whole bunch and it was 8 hours of CE hours so that helps alot.
