    Certification and moving States

    My apologies I should've included the outliers, with that said the state he's inquiring about does not meet these standards.

    Certification and moving States

    Just now seeing this. Take the course and take the NREMT once you finish the course. Once you pass the NREMT you can work anywhere in the states. The only thing you may have to learn is the local and state scope of practice as this can vary state to state, and county to county. But all in all...

    Brother cheated

    Wow pretty harsh, one bad move and he needs to find another way to make a living? I could understand if he spat on someone or lost his cool, but he got caught cheating. Even the registry would most likely reprimand similar to those with DUIs but most cases even they don't revoke access forever...

    Ambulnz Health, LLC (Los Angeles County)

    Like LA County isn't already riddled with workers that don't care. McCormick does call bonuses and I don't recall the quality of care diminishing either. For a call bonus to diminish care it means the care was low quality to begin with Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk

    Ambulnz Health, LLC (Los Angeles County)

    Common misconception is call bonus = lesser than satisfactory service. You can't rush a call no matter how hard you try the receiving facility works at their own pace. Plus LA and OC traffic is undaunting so that defeats the myth plus excuse. P.S. I have never worked for Ambulnz *snickers* nor...

    Ambulnz Health, LLC (Los Angeles County)

    I think everyone is getting stuck in numbers. The original article said up to 72k. With that said it means the opportunity is there BUT if nobody makes it then it means they can always fall back on the 'up to'. I part-time in a sales dept and this is unique wording. AT&T tells new customers to...

    Union and EMS

    Ohhhh it was AMR. OK ok. I was mainly inquiring because I was told union and EMS don't mix. The employment I've had prior to being in EMS, I was a part of unions. There's more pluses to the minuses IMO. Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk

    Union and EMS

    Yea I know benefits come with how they're negotiated. I'm just inquiring if there was anything else out there other than IAFF. For all that we're expected to do within the golden hour, I thought it was more out there. Since I've never done full 911, wasn't sure if the grass was greener since (in...

    Union and EMS

    So I plan on working with a 911 provider after I finish medic school. Because of family dealings, I'm going to stay in CA or at worst relocate to NV or AZ. I've only worked for private ambulances so my question is, is it rare for 911 providers to not be unionized? I seek it because of the...

    Paramedic schools in California?

    Why the hell do you have to pay to intern? Is that a liability pay for insurance?
