About the Role
Paramedics provide critical medical care to emergency and non-emergency patients, serving as the first line of defense in restoring and promoting patient health. In this role, you will administer life support, manage transport in and out of hospital settings, and maintain positive working relationships with diverse customer groups and agencies. You will operate under established medical protocols or physician authorization to ensure the highest standard of care for the sick and injured.
What Makes a Successful Medic at MEMS?
Success in this position requires more than clinical expertise; it demands a caring and compassionate manner for all patients. You must possess strong assessment skills, the ability to respond quickly, and the capacity to remain calm in high-stress situations. A professional demeanor is essential for cooperating effectively with other first responders. Familiarity with the service area and the ability to navigate it effectively are also key to delivering timely care.
The Day-to-Day Experience
MEMS provides coverage around the clock, seven days a week. Most schedules feature 12- or 24-hour shifts on a regularly rotating basis, with other options potentially available. As a Paramedic, you will work outdoors in all kinds of weather. The role involves significant physical demands, including walking, climbing, kneeling, bending, running, and frequently lifting 110+ pounds. Accurate hearing and vision (correctable to 20/40) are required, and the use of a respirator may occasionally be necessary.
