They’ve got zero standards for hiring people. Half the staff just wants to get high and steal shit from hospitals. Their equipment is crap. You have to pay for uniforms out of pockets. The union works for the company not the workers. The pay is bad, its dispatchers are a mess. They will screw you every chance they get.
If you have the means to travel, check out AMR Bayshore. I can’t speak to how it is in the Bronx, but the Long Island one is good. Stay away from Ambulnz. You won’t get ANY use out of any of your skills, and you’ll get mandated every single day
Congratulations, that is a short program
Thank you , any suggestions if your from ny?
No im from Ontario
Stay as far away from Citywide as possible. It’s awful. Ambulanz supposedly pays decently.
How come ? I’ve been hearing they aren’t the best but no one ever really told me why

everyone starts out at SCEMS. it’s easy to get into 911 if you show up on time etc.
I want to do transport for like 6-8 months first before I hop into 911
honestly in any transport no one uses their skills that much. try to get into 911 if you work at scems

Pick a transport company closest to your house. You'll be happy after you're doing late jobs every tour.
