I used to work for Southwest at another station before I got hired with LifeNet. If you want to know anything about them, I will be glad to help. You might also try this site and click on ambulane services, it will give you a list of all the services in Arkanas as well as a contact number...

We wear the company patch on our left shoulder, and our National patch on the right.

Of course, everyone has to start some where

Always good to see a fellow Arkansan. I had my first code during my third shift.

Mems isn't a bad place to work. They called me for an interview, but I was already working full-time elsewhere. As far as trucks, I have mainly seen type two basic transfer trucks. And, type three Medic trucks. You might go here for some info about the company. www.metroems.org

Did I hear someone say Arkansas?

My service we work 24 on 48 off. Even though right now i'm on 72 straight. As far as call volume it depends. Sometimes we do nothing but run, days like today we haven't ran a single call. Yet As far as pay, we get paid Emt's get paid 7.25, and Medics around 10 or 11 dollars. I am about to go...

Yeah, I never heard of getting a card for certificate for evoc.

How often do you have to do EVOC at your service? We have to redo ours every year during an annual training class.

Took me two days for an interview. Found out two hours later I was hired.

On our medic truck we keep a automatic bp cuff. But, none of us that normally work on it even uses it except for the pulse ox. We all prefer to do it manually.

I took my basic class last spring, and we had brady. My instructor hated it, barely had any information he felt we needed to learn. When I studied for my basic which I took on the 16th I just got a couple of National Registry test books and studied them, and took online test's.

Mine stopped at question abou 104 I believe, and I passed. To my surprise, I thought I failed miserably.
