HI my name is Kimberly and I am considering doingt he EMT-B course, I have a few questions I am hoping someone can answer.
1) With the EMT-B cert what kind of jobs can you get? I would like to do a lot of hands on patient care, I don't want to be the driver of the ambulance, what are the options?
2) How do I find local volunteer stations that may offer the training? I have heard that if you agree to do volunteer work for them after your training they will train for cheap or for free, has anyone doesn this?
3) How emotionally draining is this job? I have heard some pretty bad stories of things that are seen, I am sure it is true, but how common is it to see somthing very disturbing?
4) Is it hard to get a job with EMT-B cert?
Thanks for any info you may have.
