EMT-B/Cert IV EMR Volunteer Abroad

[jamesm]

Hello I was wondering if anyone knows of an organisation that takes EMT's who would like to pay their own and volunteer overseas in vulnerable countries. I'm looking at doing 2 -4 months overseas, my experience is only a Australian Cert IV in Emergency Medical Response but I'm also a member of Australasian Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians as an EMT-B.

Here is a copy paste from the AREMT website of what my qualification is equivalent to.

EMT-Basic (EMT-B) Requirements

Applicants must be 18 years or older to register

Successfully complete, within the last two (2) years, an approved Standard EMT-Basic education program, as developed and promulgated by the U.S. DoT, Australian health training packages and International approved EMT-B level programs.

Certificate IV in Health Care (Ambulance) HLT41007
