I am interested in becoming a firefighter, is that something I would need to go to college for? If so, what classes should I take in college and what school in MN should I attend?

I have applied to community college to major in fire science, is that a good choice I made?

I'm not sure which career path is be best for me, can someone help guide me in the right direction?

I'm 23 years old, ever since I was child I've wanted to be someone that helps others. I've worked at a hospital for 3 years now, searching for the career thats right for me. I started of as ancillary staff but after less then 1 and a 1/2 years I became part of The Lift, Mobility, & Compression Team. Basically we work really close with nursing staff and physical therapy, we respond to every crisis situation (code stroke, code blue, patient falls, to an in patient getting moved up to ICU), we also are firm believers in early mobility so we work with patients doing range of motion, dangling, standing, getting them on cardiac chairs or regular chairs, ambulating them, and even helping discharge max assist patients. Right now my major is nursing, but I would not want to work as a floor nurse, recovery nurse, ICU nurse, pick line nurse, or wound care nurse. I'm thinking CVOR nurse, ER nurse, trauma nurse, crisis nurse, CRNA even though there is a lot more school required, one thing that really grasps my attention outside of the medical field is becoming a fire fighter. #nursing #registered-nurses #surgery #firefighting #emergency-room #trauma-nursing #firefighter
