Was wondering if anyone could share some insight or suggestions... Im in medic school, its an accelerated class with a smaller class size. Somewhere along the line i became the odd man out. There were some miscommunications earlier on, which i addressed once the instructor pulled me aside and...

Remote Medical International offers a hybrid course where you do a month worth of online course work than spend 9 days up in Alanson for your skills & clinical rotations.

Which I am more than fine with. Honestly if I do end up going military I'd go active duty. If that's where I end up than let's go.. all or nothing. That's how I see it anyway

Where are they based out of? I only know AMR, Maricopa Ambu, and Faulk as far as the private sector goes

Dear VentMonkey, Did I say something that offended you or something? I feel like you interpreted my desire to broaden my experience in different parts of the field as a insult to those who work the 911 system. First of all, I said that SAR/PSD was an "ultimate goal". Does that mean that's all...

I definitely was not aware of such a thing. Thank you for the idea and taking the time to reply.

I am very seriously considering this option. More so than I was before. I always regretted not enlisting out of high school, life would have turned out very different had I done it. Anywho, any significant differences come to mind when deciding between corps man vs 68W? Aside from the obvious

Oh man, thank you roclet! The detailed and direct response is incredibly appreciated. I've been entertaining the idea of going 68W with the army but 8 years is a long time and imoney alread 32. Could I handle? I have no doubts? Is it for me? Only one way to find out right? The only that has...

Yeah tri-city just tested last year. A wait list for AMR in AZ?? What area do you llive in? The only wait listed manpower I've seen in the hands of AMR or southwest is part time employees.

Yes unfortunately the SWA/Rural Metro/AMR/Lifeline has a monopoly on a good portion of the state. But I know there are a few places with 911 ambu coverage (outside of FD). I know Gila RIVER, Ajo, and one of the other Indian reservations do but I can't recall which exactly and I know there's a...

I'm currently an EMT in AZ (been here a little over 2 years), just a few weeks from finishing my A-EMT. I've been working in a fire based city environment. Would like to cross over into a more rural setting. I live in Maricopa County and the only rural-ish area nearby is Gila River (who is not...

Got it. That makes sense lol How would I figure out what agency's operate like that though? Aside from knowing or having dealt with the medical director

Thanks for the advice Robb One last question..... you said work as a medic with a reputable agency vs being a protocol Monkey. I'm guessing by protocol Monkey your referring to working a first due like the one Im in now right? Lol Definitely agree with you there but how would I do that? Get on a...

Hey all, First I just want to say that yes, I know I have a long road of hard work and time invested ahead of me. That being said... I am currently an EMT working a an ambu in a fire based system where we're always within 10min of a hospital. Um, yawn! Lol I want to expand my scope/work...
