If you want to use your skills 911 is the way to go. I've only done a few IFT (Literally maybe 5 or 6 in 15 years) and there's nothing to them. Everything is already done for you. They have IV's, intubated or drips already going and you just monitor them. 911 you actually have to treat and maintain your patient.
At the end of the day it just depends on how comfortable you are with your skills and if your want to treat your patients or just transport them.
...and since we're generalizing, any difficult decisions gets punted to medical control anyways... so go to medical school where you really get to treat patients... instead of following cookbook protocols.
