I would honestly recommend the paramedic degree and profession to anyone who has a real passion for helping people.
The trust the community places in us allows us to help them in their times of need. Being a paramedic is a true privilege.

“
I think what brings me the greatest pride and satisfaction is the chance to be there for people in some incredibly intimate moments of crisis.
To be able to walk away from these situations feeling like you made a positive impact during someone’s time of need is immensely rewarding.
