How to become an EMT
It made me
Prepared!
 "Learning to become an EMT was great. I made some friends and learned a lot."
How I did it: Enrolled in the classes, hit the books, and paid attention in the lab and during my clinicals. It could be trying at times, but I just stuck with it and kept on studying and learning as much as I could. Lessons & tips: Study and pay attention. Becomming an EMT isn't hard to learn, but in order to learn it you have to study and practice! It may seem overwhelming at first, but when you're finished you feel ready. Resources: Local Community College, good instructors, effort, time and a little money. |

Robadjuster is Yeah,
How I did it: I was on a volunteer fire department, and through one of my friends, I learned of a class that was beginning soon. I thought it over and decided that it was something that I wanted to do. I learned a little bit about what I was getting in to, and decided to go for it. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I enrolled at a local school for their EMT-B program, I pushed myself to meet with people I was un-familiar with in a new lifestyle I was not used to. I studied hard, practiced often. I had the desire and motivation to wake up every day and work torwards the goal I had envisioned for myself. I learned a lot about the field, and found out this is what I am interested in. I saw some interesting scenarios while riding along for clinicals, an… Read how I did it…
How I did it: Took the course, studied hard, made myself go thru the labs/practice, and took the national registry test--computer and practical. I met some great people along the way. Read how I did it…

How I did it: Took the course at the local technical college and studied, than passed the NREMT. Studied to make sure i knew the material inside and out. Didn't hurt that i'm also a nursing student Read how I did it…

I saw that the college is offering a one month full time class next semester for EMT licensure. How is anyone currently employed supposed to get this training?!
So…I’ll leave this on here for now, though if this is the new trend locally I don’t see that I will be able to fulfill this goal without moving out of town.
Once I am back in the states taking an EMT-B course is something I am planning on doing. Mainly for the knowledge and gained experience. I can honestly say I did not have a lot of interest in medicine/health care until I took a Wilderness First Responder course. I discovered it’s actually something that I found fascinating and really enjoy. I view taking the EMT course as a stepping stone, the exact path it’ll lead is still open, but it’s something I want to pursue.

I’m 25 years old and I’ve finally decided what it is I want to do in life: become an EMT.
I just have to get my third Hep-B shot and retake COR training, and then I’m ready to start taking classes. I’ll hopefully start EMT-B classes this summer – I’m excited!

I volunteer with a first aid squad and it is the best feeling in the world. When I completed the class and found out I passed my exam and was a certified EMT I had never felt so happy. I’ve been an EMT for about 6 months now and I love it.
Most Stressful summer I ever had but it was worth it! Feels great to be certified. I had a great Instructor that really knew what she was doing. The road wasn’t without it’s ups and downs though… However feels great to have come this far.
Took the National Test and found out this morning that I made it!!! Whew…what a relief!! That test was a pain and a half..I felt like I bombed it for sure, and didn’t feel like attempting it again if I did happen to fail…but I passed!!
I have been an emt for over 1 y 6 m and I really enjoy it..actually I have been in dispatch since last aug c/o being prego..but I had y baby in Nov and I feel I need a change maybe back to the road I go!

Digitelle is unmoored in a sea of potential asks,
“all the EMS workers I see go into it fairly young. Is 28 much older than average for going into this career?”
