Hall ambulance insiders how do you get hired fire you have fire background?

Oh and great beer too

We are one of the better states for EMS. Plenty of city and county third services, delegated practices from medical director means no state max for scope, decent pay, no state income tax, and great food.

Man no wonder people go there my friend recently applied for their ems agency a couple months ago but didn't really ask why, thought he just really liked Texas haha

It is a real career with longevity, and real (state?) retirement in more places than not there. Wilco EMS is still tops in my Texas EMS book; Jarvis is the icing on their systems proverbial cake.

Start studying now, we will be hiring again after the first of the year.

It isn't in my cards now, if at all. I was merely laying down an example of what it is I feel Texas offers regarding EMS and careers.

I might take that advice though. GEMS is getting a little stretched for me.

Texas is on the short list for me, but not ETMC. Some head hunter for paramedics plus/ETMC friended me on linked in. Those uniforms are terrible.

A 20k hiring bonus bus a red flag for me.

There was that too. Though I only saw 7k and 1k relocation.

Acadian is doing 20k in Louisiana right now. And paramedics plus is offering 35k over 5 years for Sunstar. All are bad signs

Liberty is hiring EMTs currently. Delano hires frequently but last I heard they have a full roster. Same county and same system as Hall, als 911, little lower EMT pay and call volume. If you have any specific questions I'd be happy to answer.

ETMC is looking at some federal fraud problems and has a "live at work" problem, I'd avoid them for the time being. Champion is legitimate though and serves essentially more of the same.

If Wilco did 12s, it would be perfect. What's your UHU out there, if I may ask @aquabear @Handsome Robb ? Here at Cypress Creek, our 24s are busy enough you don't sleep.

@Daddyrunner , let's put it like this: our scope is anything our MD wants it to be. Field blood transfusions? Sure, why not? RSI is pretty normal. Ketamine? Make it rain. Meanwhile, CA EMS is still often asking permission for medication.

We actually have two 12 hour demand trucks and one 10.5hr demand truck, but the turn over for those shifts is really low. I think there have been 2 people that have left the 12 hour shifts since they stared. UHU is pretty reasonable, our busiest truck averages 7-8 calls in a 24 hour shift.

Creek's the opposite. My partner and I are literally the only two people here who like the peak truck as an assignment.

This area is heavily ingrained in the belief that 24s are mandatory to have a proper EMS lifestyle

I've noticed. I am pretty over working 24s.

Join the club. I'll be mostly happy when we move to 12s... Minus the games they're playing with our "raises"
