Careers & Volunteers
Becoming an EMT is a great way to help others and make a difference in your community. EMTs are first responders who provide care to patients in emergency medical situations. They are trained to assess patients, provide lifesaving interventions, and transport patients to the hospital. All EMTs must complete rigorous training and pass a certification exam in order to provide care to patients.

EMTs work in various settings, including ambulances, fire departments, and police departments. The job can be demanding, and EMTs must be able to think on their feet. EMTs must complete a training program and obtain certification before they can begin working. The training program includes coursework in anatomy and physiology, medical procedures, and emergency response, in addition to classes on properly lifting patients and performing CPR. EMTs must be able to remain calm under pressure and make quick decisions. The job can be physically and emotionally demanding, but it is also extremely rewarding. EMTs often form close bonds with their colleagues and the people they help, making a difference in the lives of others every day.

EMT training is grueling, but it is also essential to ensure that EMTs are prepared to handle any situation they may encounter. The skills and knowledge learned during training can mean the difference between life and death for both EMTs and their patients. EMTs must complete a rigorous training program covering everything from medical knowledge to emergency response procedures. In addition, EMTs must pass a national certification exam before they can begin working. With so much responsibility, it’s no wonder EMTs have one of the most demanding jobs in the world. But for those who are up to the challenge, there is no greater reward than knowing you’ve made a difference in someone’s life.
One way to give back to your community is by becoming a volunteer EMT. Not only will you gain real-life experience that you can continue to use throughout the remainder of your EMT career and for future jobs, but you will also have the rewarding satisfaction of helping those in need. To become a volunteer EMT in any state, you must first complete a formal EMT training program and be licensed. Volunteer EMTs perform the same duties and skills as paid EMTs – they just don’t receive financial compensation. Many underfunded communities rely on volunteer EMTs for critical life-saving services.
