A Day in the Life of an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT)

In this role, you will be at the intersection of healthcare and public safety. You will respond to emergency and non-emergency situations, providing critical medical care in your communities – with time to grab some caffeine during your shift, too! Your work includes collaborative efforts with healthcare teams and significant independent tasks, focusing on patient safety and effective problem-solving during calls for service. You'll need to efficiently manage EMS equipment and resources to safely respond to calls for service at any time. Expect to perform both routine and complex medical and emergency procedures, adapting swiftly to the varied needs of each situation. Regular duties also involve comprehensive documentation and meticulous maintenance of quality control systems.

About the Ambulance Service Department 

Emergency Medicine, Anywhere, Anytime

Working at the intersection of healthcare and public safety, we bring emergency medicine directly into the community—providing advanced care before a patient even reaches the hospital.

Here, you’ll work with confidence, adaptability, and an unwavering commitment to helping people on their worst days. Whether you're rushing to a critical emergency in someone's home, assisting at the scene of an accident, or simply assessing a patient who has called for an ambulance 23 times this year, you will change lives. While the job can vary from tedious to maximum intensity all in the same shift, it comes with definite perks — like the camaraderie of a strong, supportive team and getting paid to enjoy a coffee with that team between calls. If you're ready to be the calm in the chaos, the expert in uncertainty, and the one who makes a difference in a patient's time of crisis, join us in the Ambulance Service at CRMC.
