Denver EMS

[james]

I am moving to Denver soon does any one know of any Villi sevice there? If so can you give me some info on them? How hard is it to get a state cert I am NREMTB.

The closest volli service I know of to the Denver area is Highland Rescue. Google them. To my knowledge all of the other volli services are outside the metro area, in the mountains and on the plains.

Are you looking specifically for a volunteer EMS position? Or are you a firefighter? Both? How far are you willing to drive to play the jolly volley? Why don't you look into part time paid instead, if you're moving to Denver proper?

If you are an EMT-B looking to work as a volunteer only, then Northglenn Ambulance is one good option for you. Northglenn is on the north end of Denver. They always have volunteer positions open.

If you are interested in working for pay, there's Denver Health, Rural Metro, AMR, Pridemark, Northglenn, Capitol City... I can get you information about many of these if you're interested. Shoot me a PM. If you're looking to move a bit more northern Colorado, there's Weld County, Thompson Valley EMS, Poudre Valley Hospital (PVH), and a host of volley types up here.

State cert is cake with your NR. Just fill out the app. and give it to the state and Bob's your uncle, you have a state cert in a few weeks.

I see on their website it says EMT-B IV
-what is the IV, does that mean they can start IVs or is it the Roman numeral #4?

Thanks (probably a stupid question)

Northglenn is just ourside of Denver, they also runs some overflow calls in Denver as well. No idea what their call volume is like. I am aquainted with one of their administrators, if you have any questions about the outfit I'm sure I can sort them out for you.

EMTB IV just means you can give an IV. I just found out that I will not be in Dever I will be in Greeley and I found a volli sevice there, and a reserve TEMS team I am going to look into. I have always wanted to get into TEMS.

thanks for all your help
