FYI for anyone taking the EMT basic written exam thru PSIexams.com they are'nt state affiliated. also do not reimburse you if you cancell a test or miss a test.So you could pay $55.00 for every test taken.You only get 3 chances and then you have to take another emt course again.I missed test because of my job demands they counted that as one of my test attempts.So I only have 2 shots left.They were rude as hell on the phone 2 me and I spoke to 3 diffrent operators.Be warned register by phone
It's a great job if you have the guts and heart. There is no greater reward than a simple "Thank you" after saving someones loved one, and no greater heartbreak than losing a pt. The biggest problem with volunteer EMS is the power struggles and politics that go on within corps. If you don't fit the "good ole boy" mentality you'll never make it. I say this from experence, I am an EMT in Upstate NY (not far from Spencerport) with over 20 years experence. My cert number will reflect that, 144XXX.
I work for a private service and a steel mill. Definatly become an emtif you want to help people and see some crazy shit. Just a side note to the other guys out there: DON'T try to pick up chicks by saying your an emt. Most don't care. Chicks in ems are so much cooler.
same here man! i cant wait... i plan on being a volunteer on the side while im in college, currently i go with a friend of mine who is on the fire department/emt-b, i help out on scene and ride along with him, i cant actually touch the patient, but i do get to help out with bringing supplies and monitoring vitals, i really cannot wait to get out and do the real thing, there is nothing better than saving a life
Wow this video was awesome. I'm currently working on my EMT-B certification. This video is very inspirational. A lot of love to all the volunteers out there. <3
good interview.
