Southwest is owned by R/M and in order to work for my local R/M operation, you need to be 18 years of age. Is that not the same for Southwest?

I was told by one of the HR employees that if I went, I would be "dismissed" without an interview for being under 21. Was told the same by an EMT there.
I may triple check and ask for the HR manager, because I wasn't aware R/M was 18 and they possibly didn't know either. I'm not sure if that's true for Phoenix, too, but can't hurt to try again.

We have several EMTs under 21 year of age working for us in my R/M operation.

I'd apply for R/M themselves, but they do the south valley, Southwest does the north west (explain to me how that makes sense), which is where I am. Also have PMT in the east, another R/M, and I was told 21 by them too. Lifeline also operates by me, which was just acquired by AMR, so I put a call in to see their ages, but no one knows yet, because all the policies are changing.
Like I said, I'll try a manager this time and see if I get different results. Hopefully.

I dont really care where I work anymore, I just need cash flow. Don't have the luxury to be picky.

I looked on the applications for the respective R/M owned companies and I couldn't find any specifics about age requirement.
 
The past two days at work have been the most challenging of my career. I can't even begin to explain all the random messed up events that took place.

From a never ending flood of codes to a psychotic break it was non stop.

It all culminated in my last patient. A GI bleed / Ruptured Esophageal varices, who was (Insert any infectious disease you want) positive, pouring out blood from both ends. Faster than we could pump blood back in. Literally spent the majority of my day covered in blood.

Thats the opposite of me. Trauma scares me...medical I do fine with.

Where in Maine do you practice?
 
give me trauma any day of the week and twice on Sunday, I find it more straight forward. what makes you for comfortable with medical?
 
you know, I am not really sure. maybe its just that I see more medical than I do trauma so I feel more comfortable there.

and I practice in York County
 
my experience is mostly ski patrol so what I see is trauma, when I'm on the ambulance I'm usually driving
 
I'm fine with medical and trauma, but I have a lower tolerance for fakers...
