Paramedic school is commonly the second school that an EMS provider will attend. Most people will enter EMS as an EMT, start working or volunteering their time, then set their sights on Paramedic school.
Becoming a paramedic can open the door to more job opportunities and possible placement in area fire departments.
I sat down and jotted down the 5 things that I tell every new paramedic student and every EMT who is thinking about joining a local paramedic college or university.
My hope is that every EMT who has either just started paramedic school or those about to join takes the action steps laid out in this video, it will make the entire process so much easier.
Be great,
Evan, The Paramedic Coach

Going from EMT to Paramedic is the biggest career jump you will make in the EMS profession. EMT class is typically 12 weeks, while Paramedic college can be minimum 14-18 months, most are two years in program length.
When working on the ambulance, I always enjoyed working with partners who were EMTs that were in Paramedic school as I could teach and assist them while we were at work. This video is condensed version of how I would help my EMT partner transition into becoming and thinking like a paramedic would.
I'm aware that not every EMT wants to become a Paramedic, and we all know EMTs save Paramedics BUT if you know in your heart of hearts that you want to serve your community as a Paramedic and make the jump. This video is made for you.

When figuring out what first responder career is right for you, many new students get stuck on whether to become a firefighter or a paramedic on the ambulance service. Some start their career by being on a volunteer fire department while others try to volunteer at their local ambulance corps.
Which ever path you want to take the first step I recommend to everyone is your EMT class, that gives you a foot in the door in both professions, then based on your experiences, where you want to live, and the options presented to you, you can make a decision on the fire department or stick with EMS completely.
I discuss in this video the main differences between working as a firefighter and working as a paramedic, my aim is that this video puts you on the right path. One key note, if you are brand new is that aiming for your Paramedic certification in some fire departments, this alone can make you a stand out candidate to join.
For those of you that already possess fire certifications, gaining a EMS certification and going through EMT school or Paramedic school can help you a ton with getting hired.
Let me know in the comments, what your goals are whether it is the fire service or the ambulance service and what you are doing currently, would love to hear your stories!
Be great,
Evan, The Paramedic Coach
