EMT positions in San Diego

[msstaroflife]

There is a company called Xtreme Care Ambulance in San Diego that is hiring. I applied to a listing on craigslist for a position. Sounds like a professional group of people. Check them out.....:usa:

 

[kravturtle]

I'm in SD and saw them on Craigslist as well, but their company name seemed a little odd, perhaps even unprofessional. I think I'd like more info before applying.

Looks like they might be brand new company. They incorporated on 5/28/10.

What companies would any of you recommend here in San Diego?

I walked in to apply at Alert Ambulance and the place seemed cleaned out. I thought that was pretty strange! I'm new to San Diego and looking for some feedback on some of these companies. You know every one of them has a story, good or bad! I prefer good...

Alert Ambulance is gone. i just got laid off on friday. owner sold out to Care, getting himself a nice cushy job there and giving us 1 to 2 days notice(depending on how close you were to him) that you were now without a job. totally out of the blue, a week earlier they promoted 3 EMTs to on duty supervisors and a little more than a months ago promoted 5 to FTO, 3 months ago hired 15 new EMTs. retarded. it was a great company to work for, but run very poorly. still havent gotten my last paycheck and they offically halted service last thursday. bitter doesnt begin to express my feelings

To the OP, this is why you don't want to work for these unprofessional IFT services in SD. Look at Rural Metro, Pacific Ambulance, Care Ambulance, AMR. Those are the only ones that are reasonable. If I couldn't get hired at one of those. I would just get another job and wait.

Xtreme Care Ambulance? No thanks, I'll stick to applying at Wishard Ambulance Service, Rural Metro and the Indianapolis Fire Department. They seem much more professional.

 

[kravturtle]

I picked up an application from Rural Metro a few days ago. They're my first choice by far, but their next round of hirings isn't until January. AMR is hiring and I know someone from my EMT class who was just hired, so they're taking newbies. And I'm thinking of looking into Pacific if those don't work out. But Rural Metro is definitely my first choice.

Something do not sound right. What you're saying is that care purchased Alert Ambulance and everyone got fired? So Care is not using any of Alert Ambulance? What happened to Alert Ambulance patients/contracts?

Regarding getting notice, normally you find out that company been sold when old owner introduces the new owner. Have you asked Care if they will hire old employees of Alert Ambulance?

You need to understand that action of employees being fired is normally done by the new owner. It have nothing to do with working for unprofessional IFT but everything to do with care firing everyone which is very interesting thing in it self.

From my understanding care didnt buy the employees just the contracts. im not even sure if they got the ambulances. some EMTs got hired right away, but it depended on who were the favorites and who had early notice.

That is interesting, so they didn't buy the company in that case. Sounds like it was one of those can't refuse deals that came along and the owner took it.

the owner, or at least the only partial owner who was active in the company not including other investors(like his dad) was a 25 year old kid. now hes got a cushy job at care and plenty of money to play with.

Welcome to Capitalism. What he did might have been tasteless, but there's nothing wrong with it.

Hopefully the 25 year old made the right choice and will use the money wisely.

 

[warsaw1776]

never said there was anything wrong with it, neither did i say i wouldnt have done it myself. but when your building a company, including getting new contracts and hiring 15 new people normally you dont just up and quit. it was the shell shock of it that makes it so annoying.
