Actually, They're pretty good and I almost worked for them. I've talked to a few people that have worked for them and they all had good reviews. They have 10's and 24's for cars and they do BLS/ALS/CCT.

I had the job but the drive was a little too long of a communte for 10 hour shifts.
 
I have a friend who works for them, he says they are a pretty decent IFT out here. I have no idea what the pay/benefits are however
 
I'll keep you posted as I just got hired on there since my the other company i worked for went under.
 
uber sketch managment... hence the going under... werent compliant with LA DOT and the such
 
Ya I was with west coast. They almost went under and laid off most the company me included
They were very shady and not managed well
 
At least this company, the guy running it has 25 years in managment of EMS companies.... so I've got high hopes for that

Interview and a lot of paperwork + 90 days probationary period.
 
i met a few medlife employees and they all have good reviews.. i heard you start at 10.50 and get 5 days of 10 hour shifts right off tha bat.. if only i had a car.........
 
I have an interview with them ( first emt interview) but it's only for driver position. Any idea why they have drivers only, and attendants only? Is this how most companies are?

You will likely be trained in their way to attend but they ultimately want you to drive.

If you already have all of your driver stuff then you know the extra hoops, crap and money it takes so it's obviously easier to skip all that and just say "I don't want to drive."

Well the attendant is useless if they have no one to drive them around.
 
In reality,

Drivers can do both drive and attend... so it doesn't really matter that much. Also, It's LA, the other two counties north dont utilize the "driver" and "attendant" role.
