Hi Everyone,

I start EMT - B class in a week and want to know what steps I should take to become a flight medic?

a University by me offers an EMT- Paramedic program after I complete my EMT but it is 4,800 for the whole program. Is that too much?

I plan on working as an EMT while going to a paramedic program that way I can stay current on my skills along with getting advise from my fellow medics.

any thing will help.

Thanks!
 
My medic school cost like 10k....4800 isn't bad at all.

Flight medic is a long road.

Get your medic ASAP and take every accessory class/cert you can. Expect to be a medic for 10+ years before you get a job.

One of my basic instructors was an emergency flight nurse, this sounds about right. Especially the part about needing tons of skills certs.
