I'm pretty new too, as of April lol! Are you volunteering so you can gain experience first before working as an Emt ? Or you're hoping that your volunteer work will get you into the station you're with as a paid employee?
Just curious :)
As for paramedic, I'm not sure. I've read a lot...
Hi Dan! :)
The position is at a private ambulance company here in town that does emergency and non emergency transfers. And it did go well, really well actually! I'm naturally a very nervous person lol so after finally getting comfortable the interview went smoothly!
