I have a little bit of experience in San Francisco. King has been in the ambulance service for a long time and has a very good reputation for providing top-notch service in the City. They have been around since the late 1800s and are basically a family run business out of a home on Baker...

So many great questions. We have a couple different agencies that run EMS rescue trucks around us, to our north is Ross-West View EMS and then to our south is Baldwin EMS. Psych calls are handled by the police. We are in the midst of getting a mental health alternative response going through...

Let us not forget about the City of Pittsburgh, Bureau of Emergency Medical Services. Pittsburgh EMS is a third-service that has operated along side the Bureaus of Police and Fire since 1975. Want the best EMS Job in Pennsylvania and arguably the country? Apply today! All training and uniforms...

Thanks so much for the explanation. I appreciate it.

I am a brand new medic moving from Northern California to Pittsburgh. I have National Registry and I am moving through the reciprocity process with EMS West. I have 2 years of 911 EMT experience working for a busy, urban county in CA. I did my paramedic internship with a large, urban fire...

Thanks! What nearby AMR operations run 911? I'm planning on moving to the area.. and want to be able to transfer from my current 911 operation. Then I want to get on with a third service like ATCEMS.

Hey everyone. Does anyone know what AMR does in Austin? ALS IFT? Thanks

Thanks man. I appreciate it.

Hey everyone, I am an EMT-B in medic school in the CA Bay Area. I have worked in a pretty busy 911 system for the last 18 months. My wife and I are looking to relocate to North Carolina in the next year. We are looking at the Raleigh metro area.. and I have checked out all of the threads...

I think that you should be ok. This is AMR's Vehicle policy... according to the Union contract that we are under. I don't know what other companies have... but this is AMR's. I don't think that you should worry about it. I would let your perspective employer know what the circumstances...

I'm currently in paramedic school in California.. and work in a busy 911 system in the San Francisco bay area. There is nothing like the structure that ATCEMS has in CA. ATCEMS has always been on my radar. I love Austin and would love to work for an agency like ATCEMS. I like what you said...
