Hey yall
I'm an EMT with a probably expired cert now with 6 years of experience. Started kind of looking at the market again and saw that NW Amb is in Pierce co now??? Are they running with CPFD or just IFT? What else has changed in the area?
Hey yall
I'm here in Washington state, worked private for 6 years and quit just iver a year ago. My WA State cert expired this last November 2018.
My NREMT is expired as well. But now I kinda miss it so thought it would be nice to just have my NREMT.
Here in WA, you need to renew based on...
Have a coworker from is from Dekalb and moved back there. Primary ALS 911, he says he get's at least 1 full code per shift. Pay is way better than anything you'll see on the West Coast.
Where? Link? I searched their site and didn't find anything. Also why would LIJ have info about pay, scheduling, contracts, etc of private ambulance companies?
I'm wondering about 911 ambulance services in Ny that are not FDNY such as SeniorCare, Citywide, Midwood, etc, as well as the Hospital based services.
Wondering about pay, contracts, response, primary/secondary, schedule, etc. Thanks!
Thanks for all the info! Very helpful. I am considering doing the 1 year working holiday visa just to have an adventure. Do you have recommendations for work for someone doing that? Not necessarily as a medic or anything. Would be interested to volunteer while there too.
Oh nice! So I saw they are hiring for Advanced EMTs. Would you happen to know what locations they deploy to? And how much they pay as well as schedule?
Thanks for any info!
They always have as long as Dr. Waffle has been around. I should clarify 911 transport ambulances are required to have ALS unless they have a variance approved by the county. Definitely ALS over kill imo. ILS would be fine but what do I know :P I'm guessing you were on a an engine or something?
There is a thread up in "EMS talk" I think... about the whole Vegas Fire vs AMR thing. Last I read, sounds like AMR is getting only the BS calls while FD takes true ALS. But idk maybe that changed recently?
Hey guys
Wondering if anyone has info on both Sierra ambulance and the AMR/RM operation in Santa Clara County. Does anyone know how much both operations start EMTs at, how schedules are, relationship with fire and hospitals, things like that?

they have the BLS 911 contract with Tacoma but the county requires paramedics on all rigs so all 911 unit are ALS. TFD is primary ALS and RM gets the left overs. They do see crazy calls but not very often. i think EMTs start around $12.50 ish and medics around $15.
Yea if you've got as much experience as you do you'll have no problem getting bored and being put through the NAC thing at pretty much any ER round here
