Hi All,
So I've been reading the forums for a bit and my apologies if this question has already been asked. I just started an EMT-B class in Massachusetts and I have my state practical certification on June 9th. I don't know when my written certification test is. First of all, does anyone know how long it takes between the practical and written tests (assuming I pass the practical)?
Second, I am looking on various ambulance companies websites. I have the flexibility to either work out here in Boston or out in Western Mass. (Springfield and Berkshire County) so there are a good amount of companies. My question though is when do I start applying? Do I wait until after I have all my certifications or should I start applying before and just let them know that I won't be certified until the summer? I'm assuming I should just wait until I get my certification finalized but I am applying to PA school and need HCE so I am hoping to get a lot of hours done this summer if possible. Again, I'm sorry if these questions have been asked already but any advice would be greatly appreciated!
