Paramedic – Physicians Ambulance | Cleveland, OH $23.00 – $37.00/hr | Full-Time & Part-Time
Education, Equipment, and Leadership That Elevates
At Physicians Ambulance, we've spent 50+ years building a private EMS service that clinicians are proud to be part of. We're a third-generation, family-owned company operating across 22 Ohio counties — and we hold ourselves to a standard that shows in everything we do, from the condition of our fleet to the depth of our clinical education program.
If you're ready to work at a service where excellence is the expectation, we want to hear from you.
What We Offer Our Clinicians
A Fleet That's Ready — Every Shift. Our vehicles are work-ordered daily, equipment is properly calibrated, and units are fully stocked and organized before you ever turn a wheel. We invest in the tools you need because your ability to deliver exceptional care depends on them.
Clinical Education That's Unmatched. Our on-site Accredited Learning Center is staffed by six credentialed EMS Instructors. We offer a dedicated clinical education team, free refresher courses through educational partnerships, and clear advancement pathways — including EMS-I and Paramedic III / Critical Care Transport certification. We invest in your growth because better clinicians mean better patient outcomes.
A Full Scope of Practice — Every Day. We run complex critical care transports alongside emergency and non-emergency calls. You'll respond to lower-acuity hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, and designated events — and be expected to perform at your highest level every time.
Compensation That Reflects Your Value. We pay 10% above the national average, with an experience-based wage matrix, full-time pay boosts, and differential pay for mid, night, weekend, and event shifts. Our merit-based review process rewards performance — not just time certified.
