at least when paramedics in LA/OC/SD counties get off work we can hit the beach and soak in the sun, surf, and eat amazing mexican food.;)

It was posted on EMSTAs Facebook page. I would also recommend going to EMSTAs pre-employment work shops check out their website

If your looking for a job i hear Care and Express ambulance are hiring.

Check out the San Diego Mtn Rescue team as well as the San Diego sheriffs S&R.

Search and rescue teams are always looking for volunteers as well

I know the local hospitals are always looking for volunteers. With that said you wont technically be an "EMT" but i'm sure once you get to know people you will be a vital member in the ER.

Well I would throw an app in with mercy air, the only set back is you may have to take a job in another county before transferring to San Diego

I have heard of AMR slowly hiring medics and putting people through. It's not fast by any means but faster then Rural metro. There is Mercy Paramedics, but to get hired there is harder then rural metro. How many years did you spend in your last system?? If you have more than 3 years in a busy...

EMS Jobs in San Diego Like everyone else says, Apply everywhere. Each company has it's pro's and cons. Just like every employee has their pro's and cons. If you get a San Diego County Protocol book it has a list of all the BLS providers in san diego on one of the back pages. So while your...

Defintely would like the ability to give NTG through an IV drip when having a patient on CPAP, I've been sitting in the back of the rig many a time popping that cpap mask off to give a follow up sprays and then thinking to my self there has to be an easier way. Glad to see there are systems that...

How many ambulance responses actually end in a transport? I think we just need, transport fireengines or put a tow hitch on the existing engines? Whose down?

San Diego County is working hard to implement the Advanced EMTs. Right now there is no actual class planned. I believe EMSTA will be the pilot training center when in fact the medical directors and higher ups figure out who and what they want to certify. The talk is IM drugs IV access is still...

FDs are hiring just not the way they used to. They used give anyone with a Pcard a job. Now its just competitive. So you have to be a marketable person and build your resume and better yourself in the fireside as well as the medical side. To think that all firefighters are over being medics is a...

Thanks for the info!

Red Backs if your not planning on doing anything to crazy! AKA medic slippers haha

Hey Guys just reviewing the new San Diego COunty ALS protocol updates. It appears that they took out Atropine and NaHCo3 from our PEA protocol. Does anyone see why this would be beneficial? I'm a little worried about the Hs and Ts, and could see the use of Bicarb beneficial in many codes...

I could definitely see why people would want to protect themselves, just like you would do at your own private residence, but at the same time there is really nothing to personally protect at the station or at work I can see. If they want the Narcs, ambulance, or radios they can have it! I'm not...

A little while ago there was an incident in our local area that i happen to catch on the radio where a bicyclist crash with out a helmet at per witnesses at scene had a LOC of 2-5mins when he awoke became combative but oriented to person place and time and stated for the event "i crashed my...

Not sure if you read my original post. but you might wanna give it a once over so we can stay on track here. I never stated my school had taught me that any presence of an intoxicant indicated impairment to make sound medical decisions. In-fact I have not mention my schooling once? I...
