Hello All, Currently seeking info on the system in general from a paramedic perspective. I saw the system recently converted to 12 hour shifts, correct? Is it a system that utilizes ems stations or a system status type that utilizes posts? What is the call volume in a typical day? As a medic...

So I recently called these guy's ops to try and find out some information, and not going to lie, it was like pulling teeth. Only thing I found out is that Ellis county does some IFT and 911, and neighboring Johnson county does only 911. As far as protocols and pay goes, I got the generic "you'll...

Anyone know anything about either of these operations? Just curious about pay, reputation, IFT to 911 ratio, and how the fire dynamic is for them (like ALS or BLS, and fire takes pt lead or EMS takes lead). I already talked to Hunt county AMR which sounded nice, but the conversation didn’t go...

I'm currently enrolled in the EMT-Basic program for this fall. I just have two questions. What are the pros and cons for working for a private company like Acadian vs. The city of Beaumont? Do they both offer overtime? Are the benefits the same? What are the schedules like? Thank you!!

I live in Houston Texas and this will be my first time to recertify for my EMT and I was wondering if I still need to do a refresher course since we follow the NCCP and I am not currently working as an EMT so I will be applying as inactive. I am a little confused on how I can find CE classes in...
