The base hourly pay is very competitive, if not the best as a new EMT looking for experience in the field. They offered a bonus per patient pickup, which was a nice addition to the base pay. You will and can get good EMT experience out of the position, if you want to practice skills; however, if you want to be lazy and just clock in and clock out, that’s also possible.

Strong pressure from managers and dispatch to cut corners. You need to pick a partner you trust both morally and physically, as no one above you will look after you if something goes wrong. You need to stand your ground on making safety decisions, because you will be pushed to "just try" when situations could become dangerous to yourself, partner, or patient.
