    NYC Covid EMT surge staffing job

    AMR is here, you can also try Ambulanz. If you want to circumvent the Federal stuff, try some of the local private Ambulance companies i.e. SeniorCare, Hunter, etc. although the pay will likely be lower. I also posted an email in the COVID-19 hiring topic. Good luck and thanks for the help.

    Apparently, AMR has the contract with FEMA and has been activated to provide buses and crews and respond to NYC. Anyone know what Ambulanz is paying ?

    FEMA is sending 250 buses and 500 EMT's & Paramedics to NYC Per FNC Per the situation I don't think NYC REMAC or NYS DOH will be saying we don't recognize NR or other States Certs' / Licenses etc. at this point willingness to go into harms way counts more than whose card is in your pocket, MHO.

    In Borough Park Brooklyn, while an FDNY FF from E282 / L148 was checking on hydrants he was harassed by Hasidic Jewish boys. One of them went up to the FF and sneezed in his face. 4 days later the FF felt flu like symptoms and was able to get tested for COVID-19, his test came back positive.
