what are entry level positions within the hospital setting ?
i am headed down the career path of fire & ems, but have a few years of an "in-between" now and a full time spot in the fire/ems service. with that said, i have my nremt certification, and am obviously not exactly looking for a full on career, but a position within the hospital setting to hold at least til i am full time service. i am okay with some schooling/certifications, but nothing heavy with already having a path chosen. looking for a job/department i can walk right into and any other requirements can be completed post-hire. trying to stay away from the strictly/direct/heavy patient care area, such as a cna, but am open to all possible positions that would be available as "entry level". i felt about anything would look good having under my belt, as well as experience, so it doesn't have to be as directly related as an er tech job-for example

What did it take you to become a Command member in a Emergency Service Agency?
I am a Freshman in High School doing research about careers in the Emergency Service field. I am currently a Volunteer Firefighter, and I am interested in doing more research into the Emergency Service Agencies other than firefighting. #emergencyservices #emergencyservicecommand #lawenforcement #police #fire #dispatch
