Duties and Responsibilities:
Emergency medical technicians, or EMTs, usually work in teams of two and specially design ambulances.
They provide immediate life or limb saving medical treatment at the senses of accidents and injuries as well as transport casualties to hospital emergency for further care. The job is both physically demanding and stressful. Emergency medical technicians often respond to

·         Other serious medical emergency’s

Average salary: $25,000-$37,500

Educational Requirements:

Students must have a high school diploma (in some areas GED certifacets may be substituted) in order to become a emergency medical technician. Driver’s education, health, and science courses are strongly recommended and may be required before enrolling in some training programs. Basic emergency medical technician training includes about 100-120 hours spent in the classroom and 10 hours in a hospital emergency room. Emergency medical technicians are required to pass state licensing or certification tests and participate in continuing education programs. Many emergency medical technicians earn associate degrees in their field.

Since I am a very nervous person I don’t think I would be the right person to take the responsibility to have this as a job.
