I've been a medic for a little over 6 months in Massachusetts and I've been looking to move to Orlando soon. I got my Florida cert and I've only applied to Lake EMS so far. I was hoping someone here can give me insight to the system down there. I've read that Florida is heavily firebase for 911 gigs. But if there are any other options, I am all ears.

My buddy worked for American Ambulance down there as a medic--he made like $14/hr, which sounds awful, but they did some 911 (Orlando Fire did the rest) in addition to IFT. This was a few years ago though, like 2012.

You can always do AMR. The do some 911, and you have the option to transfer anywhere in the nation. People will talk ****, but if you show up, run your calls and go home, AMR isn’t terrible. It’s the morale and drama that give it the bad rep.
