EMT Jobs Overview
EMTs don't wear capes, but they rescue people every day. When someone has a medical emergency, EMTs are the first to arrive on the scene to stabailize them and take them to the hospital. In addition to their medical knowledge, they also need to be able to reassure and calm the patient, who may be in severe physical and mental distress. And it doesn't take a degree to master these skills. EMT jobs are open to high school graduates who complete one to two years of training.
As part of their day-to-day jobs, EMTs drive emergency medical vehicles, lift and carry sick, injured, and impaired people to the vehicle, and drive them to the hospital. They know how to administer medical treatment like first aid, apply splints, give oxygen, perform CPR, and do other basic life support procedures. During the hospital transport, they communicate with the hospital, so it's ready to receive the patient. There are more than 265,000 EMT jobs in the U.S., and the Bureau of Labor Statistics expects that number to grow by 6% over the next decade.
