Job Summary:
If you are a self-starter, do not require micromanagement, and prefer to work in a small organization where you will have a big impact, you need to consider Fort Mill EMS. With a 24 on / 72 off schedule, you’ll have time to pursue other passions, work a second job or pick up overtime on your days off.
We operate one full-time truck and one part-time truck as part of the York County 911 system. Fort Mill EMS averages 4 transports a shift.
As a paramedic, you will be responsible for managing your crew and meeting high standards of patient care. Your crew provides basic and advanced level prehospital treatment and transport to ill and injured patients. You will assess and perform appropriate treatment of patients while working under standards and protocols approved by the Medical Director and SC DHEC.
Fort Mill EMS is also a training ground for many aspiring EMTs. If you enjoy mentoring students and new EMTs to become high performers, you will have ample opportunity to do so. If you like classroom teaching, you can instruct ACLS or PALS, community CPR and first aid and more at our soon to open training center. Instructor training provided.
If you enjoy large, highly structured EMS organizations and need a supervisor to watch over you, then you should pass on Fort Mill EMS. Otherwise, if you want something different and are intrigued to learn more, apply today.
