I finally quit my EMT job after almost 3 years. I was an EMT full-time for 2 years and part-time for 1 year on top of another full-time job. After going back and forth on whether or not I should continue, I've decided to end my EMS career to take care of myself more. Sitting/driving in an ambulance 12 hours a day has taken a toll on my body and mental health so I felt this decision was only right!

Having a good partner makes all the difference in the world. I love my EMT job right now because I have an amazing partner. I have had some bad ones in the past. I came so close to quitting multiple times

Doesn't matter if you work 1 year or 30 years this job will change you and leave you with a new outlook on life. Good luck going forward with your future plans. After 16 years as a Paramedic I still have yet to use a tourniquet. Go figure 😲

Such a great video, thank you for sharing your insights! My RU-vid algorithm picked up on your channel and more specifically this video as I was considering switching from tech design to EMS and this has given me loads to consider- in a good way! All the best for your future, I’m sure whatever you do will be great especially if you love what you do

One thing to say and thanks for telling us this. It's rough to hear why people leave this profession but it's completely understandable. Don't let your certification go. Try to hold onto it as long as you can. It will always give you options to go back for whatever reason. And you worked hard for it ad all EMTs do.

Thank you for posting this. I just started going on week 6 and im really struggling mentally i wanna quit so bad but my dad and some of my friends dont want me to. I only got in so i can be a firefighter but they made us become emts as well. It sucks cause i care to much about what people think of me.

Hey friend, I totally get what you’re feeling, but life is too short to care what people think and to let them dictate your life. I started out as an EMT (for pre-med) and I didn’t love it either. I’m now in the process of transitioning to be an ER tech, which is a little more my speed. Remember, you can’t help others until you help yourself first. Rule #1 I learned from EMS, put your health, well-being and safety FIRST!

As someone who’s almost twenty years in EMS. And has worked as an emt, paramedic, flight paramedic and now firefighter paramedic. I have seen all types of people along the way from burnt out to the most optimistic. And I will say two things. Some people are simply not cut out for this line of work. It takes a special kind of person to want to do this and an even tougher person to survive a career in the field. Whether it’s police, Ems, fire, or nursing. I say survive because the mental toll it can take can be devastating. Which brings me to my second thought and what I tell kids starting out. Take care of your mental health because that is ultimately what will lead to folks struggling daily, leaving the field or taking their own lives. Unfortunately we have a long way as a community to go to normalize the mental health aspect of the job. As that suck it mentality is still prevalent in a-lot of places.

@@PULAG first, you have to figure out what you would like to specialize in. As for me, im an RVT and working on my RDCS (Cardiovascular sonographer).. but there are many other modalities like, abdominal, OBGYN, MSK, Pediatrics etc. Once decided you have to find a program near you that is ACCREDITED (very important!!!) and follow their onboarding process, every school is different mine was easy to get into but most programs are extremely competitive with limited seats
