DC Hiring single role medics

[Wheel]

And for second, I'd hate to be one of the only smart medics in town. I have a friend who spent some time there and ended up back at his suburban DC department after a couple of months. He said the attitudes of the vast majority of the employees there are so negative they don't even register on the disgruntled meter.

Add to that crappy equipment, terrible leadership, a woefully understaffed system and its a recipe for disaster, career-wise.

It would be fun for 1 year and 1 year only, like a deployment.

I've always thought there was a market for traveling medics, like traveling nurses. I think it would be neat to see something like that come up.

These were my exact thoughts. A travel gig would be fun.

I think it might be fun for a bit.

I agree with you guys. The only argument I see is FD is sworn in here. They all wear a badge. EMS is not sworn in and no badges.

I do just EMS and we wear aren't sworn in and wear badges, but only on our class A uniform. Some places will wear them on their belts with a class B
