Accreditation: Paramedic Specialist, Critical Care Paramedic

Reason for being a Paramedic |
It was a complete fluke actually. I was an investigator for a large retail
corporation and decided to take an EMT class for fun. I left my investigations
job after my EMT class and have been doing EMS full time as a paramedic for 5 years. |

training exercises. There is a great feeling of camaraderie amongst all EMS
providers, fire fighters, and law enforcement. |
