What questions should I ask when I go to the fire station about becoming a EMT?
Hello! Thank you all for all the amazing answers/ help I got on my last question. I plan on going to my local fire station in the future to ask some questions about becoming an EMT, I am still looking for schooling, because I would very much prefer it to be an in class setting and not online. So I’m looking for guidance on questions to ask when I go and visit! I have a few in mind but help would be extremely appreciated!
I am wanting to become an EMT
Hello, I am finally starting to become serious about wanting to start my career and I am just wanting/needing help on where to start and how to go about it. I've been looking into schools, but I also want to go to my local fire station to talk to someone there, and to also put a face to a name. I want to start school at the end of this year or beginning of next year (2025). I know you start by going to school and getting your EMT and becoming certified, but I like to know all the information I can get and being able to talk to someone already in the career seems helpful to me. All of this to say what should I do and where do I start, and are there any tips for me. Thank you!!
