haha yeah well they hide out in their little corner of OC
Don't see them too often at MLK hospital (I've even Schaefer there before! Lol)
Besides them and Care, any other private company have 911 in OC any more? I know Care took over Doctors old areas in South OC, and I'm pretty sure there's a handful of small cities with an individual contract right? Or naw?
I agree with ER Tech positions offering double what a private ambulance will pay ($10-13 vs 1$8-25). EMS privates just don't have the pay vs. cost of living in So Cal usually. Tough to start out but sometimes that is your only foot in the door or way to get some resume experience. Good Luck!
Also, if you're looking for money, ER Tech positions are the way to go. Kaiser starts their transport and ED Techs at somewhere around $25, but you gotta be referred or know someone. Diversify your resume with EKG, ACLS, Phlebotomy, etc. Most basic ERs like Pacifica, Mission community pays butt compared to Henry mayo or Westwood that requires more certs.
