Long-time lurker, first time poster here. I just received a conditional offer of employment for a 30 day EMT job in NYC to support the Covid response. Does anyone have experiences working in NYC right now in any healthcare capacity- prehospital, ER’s, field sites, etc? I’m currently working at a FD outside Seattle, so have a little insight into the stress and changes that Covid has brought forth, but we have been pretty lucky over all and I’ve heard some concerning things about things like PPE availability and what is being considered in compliance with CDC guidelines.
Any insight into what it’s like at the heart of the hardest hit areas or working for a contractor domestically for something like this? Thanks all!
