This sounds like Protransport-1's B:censored::censored:S 24/7 availability scheme. As an ex-PT1 employee I can tell you that if you agree to be available "24/7" they expect you to drop whatever you're doing or planned on doing and be there for the assigned shift. This week you could get 38hrs...

Just picked it up and I'm excited to start learning!! :)

Could either way really. Where did you interview with AMR at? ? Where were they hiring for? ?

FAIL! LOL Yes that is correct! :wacko:

I work in a rural area of the northern California coast where we are 1hr+ in any direction. So when ALS is out on a transport and BLS is backup,which i'm on, and I get a call anywhere near this type of situation,if i can't get air i'm headin in whatever direction is the closest to hand off to a...

I would do the same thing. Life over Limb. Simple.

Ipad,Textbooks for medic class if applicable, and the nearest hipster coffee shop to park out front of and check out "the scenery" ;)

:rofl:

This was a great article!! Definitely should take a look at it.. :ph34r:

Totally what he said! ^^^^^^ :cool:

Thanks all for the advice!!! I'm not too worried really. I'm a pretty good learner so if the show me what I need to know than I'm set. Still will probably take some sort of math course. :cool:

Hey all. After looking around I didn't find a thread pertaining to my question so here it goes: Will most Medic programs teach you the math you need to know for the job/career or should I take supplemental math courses? Hx: Did not finish high school. Got a GED. I don't have ANY advanced...

I too would like to know what program you got into and what state. All of the programs recommended to me require EMT experience..one program wants 2000hrs worth.

Your FTO will show your the ropes and what the company expects. Other than that all the other advice is spot on. I was the same way. Only thing taught was 911 no mention of IFT. But basically: General impression,Any new pain?,get YOUR OWN SET OF VITALS before u decide to transport and check the...

Thanks for the info. I'm gonna be looking to start a Medic program in 2013. Gonna spend this year doing A&P,Chem,PSYCH,and some other college level courses to prep for Medic school.

Thank you NorCal for this very informative answer to my question! It sounds like a good program. I do want to work hard. Thats what I'm looking for in a program. I'm actually enrolled in some classes for the spring 2012 and I already did their Med Term back in the summer finishing with a B. I...

I did that wrong. Still learning how to use the quote thingy. Note to all, if you can't tell I'm responding to different points in the quote.

^^This is the best advice. Again I'm not trying to bash Protransport-1 at all. I'm merely giving an insider's perspective. Truth be told as I stated earlier I would work for them again under different circumstances

AMEN to both those two!!! I only lasted 2.5 months out in 81! I loved all the guys I worked with,the supervisors were awesome,and it was cool to be in Sf...but scheduling is a sham! Great field employees..bad business practices

Hey everyone. Anyone gone through or know someone who's gone through the Paramedic program at the Santa Rosa Junior College?? I'm looking at different colleges both in California and out of state and I really want a good program. The SRJC is closest and is cheaper than some of the other programs...
