No such thing as a typical day. My brother was a paramedic during the Vietnam war. Between having flaming helicopters crashing on top of him, being shot at, and having to bring out the bodies and body parts, he didn’t have much to write home about.
Hopefully being a civilian paramedic would be a little less stressful.
But good luck if you go into the field. We need good paramedics.
A typical day would be way different from the last. You can show up to car crashes, shoot outs, accidents, etc. They do a lot for one day and it’s a very good profession to work in.
I am A medic been one for 16 years it is a great job there is no typical day sometimes it is slow sometimes you get slammed with car wrecks an sick cases i work in a big city if you have a strong stomach an can deal with all the carnage that comes with it and you wanna help people then you will be ok you will never get rich doing it but it is a good livin but of course it is all about helping people.

You have to become an EMT first before you can become a medic…..It it really depends on if you are a transfer or a 911 medic……….And what type of setting that you are a medic in…..
