    premier vs liberty ambulance

    What exactly is a 'back test?' Is that just to see if you can keep your back straight during a ground lift or--?

    Elite Ambulance ***Shutdown*** RIP!

    You're getting your wish. Medlife has maybe a few months left before they have to force closure. I imagine THEN they'll hide behind AmbuLife or whatever the hell other company they bought. Pretty impressed that they're all getting closed for medi medi and not because of the current county...

    Medlife? Stay Away!

    This is just a heads up for those thinking to apply at Medlife. Short story: Don't. Long story: Once upon a time this BLS company was amazing. It cared about its employees and one of irs greatest accomplishments was firing emts left and right like we were garbage. In LA County that is...

    Good NREMT Website? Good Android apps?

    Don't bother with EMT Tutor. I think it has old information that is no longer valid. I think that one was free?? I signed up for medrills and that was pretty good stuff for refreshing your basic skills. The only thing I hate is it's hours in front of your phone. I'd rather be at my computer :\

    Post the # your test stopped at, and if you Passed/Failed

    Stopped me at 82 and I failed. My questions never got hard. They were all easy. This is my second time failing. I've never failed a test in my life before. I studied on and off for two weeks using a bunch of stupid apps and EMTPrep.com I'm lost. I have no idea what the hell I'm doing wrong...

    Local Paramedic Looking Forward to Saving Patient’s Life and Getting No Credit SATIRE

    That read was incredibly hilarious <3 Thanks for the laugh :P I mean yeah there are times I feel unappreciated but honestly I didn't get into the business to be appreciated by anyone. If you got into this field looking for free food, medals of honor, glory, and recognition you better turn...

    Ellite Ambulance Service

    I interview with them two days after medlife went under on 11/19 They were nice enough and I felt they were pretty legit. I am saddened to see this is all burning to :censored::censored::censored::censored: for them, but also there is a lot I don't know about this company as well as there was...

    Medlife Ambulance is a great company to work for!

    I'll bet I know who you're talking about and good for him! If he is who I think he is good for him for sticking it out. They tried to **** a lot of us around on UI. I wish they'd hurry up and shut down already. I've already moved on. And now Elite appealed to keep from temp closing...

    New Job...Pay?

    More importantly why didn't they tell you? That's something they should've covered in the interview whether they intended to hire you or not. That's just professional. Maybe they forgot to mention it, but still.

    Medlife Ambulance is a great company to work for!

    My understanding is it's whoever the CEO for the Ambulance Operations of LA County is. That's what I've heard, anyways.

    Medlife Ambulance is a great company to work for!

    I just spoke with Mrs. Underwood from the LA County. No, this is not permanent. This company IS ALLOWED to operate in LA County for the time being. Basically they've filed for some different type of appeal (I can't remember what it's called already. Go me) where they're sending the files...

    Medlife Ambulance is a great company to work for!

    Wow, really? What AMR do you work at? That's the bees knees if I ever heard it! And Medlife called me back and asked me to come back to work. I said no. I'm pretty butt hurt by having not worked since 11/19. That's pretty messed up. But I've learned a lot from it..and I mean a LOT...

    Medlife Ambulance is a great company to work for!

    Yeah I think he thought it was LA City but it was county, I had considered it but he seemed so sure but in talking to him he was pretty fresh to the field and probably didn't know for sure? I know it took me awhile to know the borders for LA City and County. And honestly I got a job at...

    Medlife Ambulance is a great company to work for!

    Damn no kidding! I guess that's what the dude at shoreline meant. Huh! I mean I still kinda don't dig one guy told me they had to fight for there checks at times (like to obtain them anyways) but that's whatever. It sucks but eh. No but everyone in the company is just sizzling over...

    Medlife Ambulance is a great company to work for!

    No not at all. I just think it sucks it went this way and even more so the company is STILL trying to convince us everything is alright :\ They gave the EMTS gift cards but I wasn't aware they gave it to the nurses so that's news to me. And they *****ed constantly about the nurses begging us...
