I bet all you forum regulars have probably seen this kind of thread often and hate it. I apologize.
I really am confused about how much I can make as an EMT-B in CA. I understand that it normally starts out as Min wage and that is fine but no one has been able to tell me what it can go up to. I understand also that many people leave after a year or so. In taking into account overtime and other factors what would an average yearly pay of an average EMT come to? My long term goal is nursing and I hope to continue school while holding down some kind of medical job as I continue school.
Thanks in advance for your patience.
