AMR EMT to Paramedic
Good evening,
I am balancing a few job offers at the moment and I passed the AMR PAT a week ago. There were at least 20+ new hires so I think the recruiter is swamped with questions and may have missed my email.
During my interview the recruiter said they had a program where they put you on a part time schedule and treat you as a full time employee while they send you to paramedic school.
Has anyone done something like this with AMR? And what do you need to do to qualify?
I talked to some of the EMTs while waiting my turn the other day. They seemed really happy and offered a lot of info about daily life, the recent pay raise they all got, the union, but they didn't know much about the paramedic program saying" some do it but you can't have any write ups."
I've been in and out of school due to a lot of things going on in my life and trying to stay available for my daughter. So this deal seems too good to be true and if it is this could really help change my life for the better.
