      Pros

      Your partners are what make this job even bearable.

      Cons

      Constant feeling of not appreciated.

      There is a huge favoritism scale with dispatch and they will give their favorite emts good calls and a lot of breaks.

      Supervisors are ok, there's a few that are good but then there's a few that really need to work on how they talk to their employees.

      Equipment is outdated, they do not care about their employees backs as long as they are getting payed.

      Advice to Management

      You guys really need to look at how you guys first were to your employees, fix the mistakes

      Opportunity to pick up shifts, and the partners you work with.

      Cons

      Frequent holdover, but you can’t complain much about it working in this industry!

      Pros

      Flexible scheduling, great EMTs that work here, supportive management.

      Cons

      Lack of communication between dispatch and EMTS.

      Advice to Management

      Have oxygen keys for every rig. There should be no reason why EMTs are using the gurney to open up oxygen tanks.

      Continue to praise and acknowledge the EMTs. A simple "you're doing a great job" goes a long way in a stressful job like this.

      Pros

      Great Code 2 Experience and how to give reports to nurses and engaging with other EMS agencies.
      Most of the partners you get are awesome.

      Cons

      A lot of the equipment and rigs are either old to the point where it's unprofessional or it has a lot of problems.
      Management often has a favoritism scale for potential promotions.
      Dispatch can sometimes give you a hard time if they're having a hard time when you've done nothing wrong.

      Advice to Management

      Focus more on better functioning equipment that wont endanger us or our patients.
