29...been a basic for two years so by no means am I an expert. However this is my advise....Always be willing to learn. Whether you've heard it before or not always be willing to listen both to your co-workers and bosses and more importantly...your patients. Reread anything you're not familiar...

Don't waste your time. I'm not expert but from what I gather intermediates are not widely used. Why not Medic?? Or if it's solely job related as to why you want to do an intermediate course why not just do a phlebotomy course instead and then apply for ER tech positions?? Just my 2 cents. Good...

+1 Yeah what he said! bahahaha :rofl:

All the above comments are correct. I worked for a private company in San Francisco,Ca and the "official" policy was..."no visible tattoos of any kind"..but the station managers basically said...we don't care...but don't go to HQ with them visible or get caught by brass....my current company has...

bahahahahaha That is a lot of beer!!! I got this though! :rofl: Thanks for the congrats. I've been trying to get on with AMR for a while now. Well really just been trying to get on to a 911 job with more call volume. Right now I'm on the northern california coast and do BLS transfers and some...

Right on! Congrats! I PM'd you. Thought we could swap info and whatnot. Cheers

Hello Skycap. I actually just tested and interviewed as well for the Tulare County job. Location is Visalia. I was told that we'd hear on Tuesday or Wednesday if we were going to be hired. Did they contact you about getting a signature for a background check? ? ? ?

Protransport-1 ALWAYS seems to be hiring. Check out their website or Indeed.com is pretty good for finding EMS jobs. If you do see PT-1 hiring my only advice is avoid the SF station. The people their are awesome to work with but because its a union station you won't be able to pick up any...

Hello all. I'm wondering if anyone out there are current or former AMR employees who could help a fellow EMT out with a few questions about their hiring process. My application was accepted and i'm scheduled for a written test then if I pass an interview. My questions: What should I...

It was a year and a friggin half from the time I got my certs till I got a job! It sucks in CA...sorry dude...

Bottom line...I think the OP was just trying to express some irritation with the Pt's perception of who was doing the "saving"....Narcissistic...I don't think so. We all work hard to give our Pt's the best possible care and outcome regardless of their beliefs. But I get irritated when people...

I'd say for the SRJC program just get yourself an underarmor long sleeve. I got an underarmor long sleeve that was one of those sports material ones. They keep you dry an what not. I'd recommend that for the course and then when you get hire you're company will have their own tattoo policies. I...

Is obtaining a PT's Blood Glucose Level as an EMT-B in ANYONE'S scope of practice?? ? ? ? ? ? ?:blink:

It helps believe it or not. I am open to all possibilities and I'm not ruling out anything. Thanks for taking the time to tell me about the program.

My mistake. Its in EMS Employment. I'd move it but I don't know how. LOL :wacko:

Believe me I know how expendable we are. And it is true. Thats why I quit and got a real gig. Hey NVRob. I see you're a medic student. I just posted in the education and training section about trying to find a Medic program in the U.S. If ya have a second..respond to it :cool: Thanks.

I totally understand where you're coming from and as the others say you will be nervous for a while and you will make a mistake. I was a year and a half out of emt-b school before I landed a decent job and was nervous too. Still am but once you get a job it'll all slowly start coming back and...

I know this question gets asked but it's always for a specific area of the country and since our brothers and sisters here on EMTLIFE are from all over I'm going to ask this question in the broadest way possible to elicit the widest array or responses. I am looking to go to medic school next...
