Entering the fire station for your first EMT ride-along is like stepping into a mix of feelings-feeling nervous and having lots of questions. It's important to know that being a first responder, even in a big city, means you're part of a close group. Your journey as an EMT or Paramedic starts from the very first ride-along.
This video is made just for new EMTs or Paramedics going on their first ride-along at a fire station.
In this video, we'll talk about what to do when you arrive at the fire station, and what jobs you might have once you're in the ambulance. We'll also talk about how to behave at the station, the tasks you might help with during your first ride-along, and every ride-along after that, while you're working at a firehouse.
Starting out as a first responder can be exciting but also a little scary. When you step into the fire rescue station for your first EMT ride-along, you might feel a bit overwhelmed by all the new things. But remember, even though the city might seem huge, the community of first responders is like a family.
Here at the firehouse, your journey as an EMT or Paramedic begins. Everything you do, from your first day, shapes your reputation and who you are as a responder.
This video is like a guide for those new to the firehouse scene. We'll help you understand what to expect when you arrive, the tasks you might be asked to do, and how to fit in at the station. We'll cover everything from how to handle emergencies in the ambulance to keeping the station running smoothly.
When you step into the fire station, it's like stepping into a new world. From the busy activity of the station to the quiet moments in the ambulance, every part of your journey is important.
In the ambulance, you're not just watching from the sidelines-you're a crucial part of the team. Your job is to jump in, help out, and stay dedicated no matter what comes your way.
But being a first responder isn't just about medical skills. It's also about showing respect for the station and your fellow responders. Whether it's keeping equipment in order or helping with chores, every little thing you do reflects on the whole community.
As you start this journey, remember that every action you take matters. Your time at the fire station shapes who you become as a responder.
This video isn't just a list of rules-it's a tribute to the spirit of first responders everywhere. It's here to guide you as you learn your new role, helping you become the best responder you can be.
So as you begin this journey, let these words be your guide. Through the ups and downs, remember that at the heart of being a first responder is the drive to help people, to heal, and to make a real difference in people's lives.

Just had my first ride along last week and have my second one in a couple of days. I loved the advice in this video and agree that all student-status people in the firehouse/station should recognize and respect the fact that we are the bottom of the totem pole. We aren’t needed there, we’re being ALLOWED to be there. Doing everything you can to help the overall team effort will definitely show the full-time staff that you WANT to be there and are eager to learn and help and much as you can. Treating each pt with respect and dignity is also a huge part of the job that they didn’t talk much about in the classroom. My new goal for every call is to make the pt either laugh or at least smile while they’re en route, we had a pt go from hypoglycemic and combative to upbeat and hilarious after getting their BG up, it was such a cool experience and I can’t wait to get back out there.

That’s a great goal to have indeed. Treat everyone as if they were your family or how you’d want YOUR family treated and you won’t go wrong. Good luck. You have a great attitude.

I do disagree with some points. Answering doors, phones all that is not the students responsibility. It’s not their house and wouldn’t want them to potentially give wrong info or something like that. 100% agree, get there early, be presentable and in uniform, introduce yourself, if it’s your first time at that house bring some donuts or something. Be active in the truck check, learn where everything is and get on a 1-1 with the medic crew and ask what’s expected and what skills they know and need to work on. I would expect a student to make sure the medic is clean, but I don’t expect them to dive into station chores. It’s not their house and I’d rather they be studying; however; if they offer, give them a small job such as sweeping or something. Studying and training is what I expect and for them to work when the tones drop are what they’re learning to do.

We had a medic student ride out with us. She wore a spaghetti strap shirt under her polo and took her polo off half way through the day. Our LT had to tell her to cover up and be professional. She rode out a few times and we had an RSI one of our days. After taking the pt to the hospital on the ventilator, i asked if she had any questions. She told me no. She said she understood everything we had done. Go figure.

Yes, we’ve seen plenty of those riders as well. They are there for one or maybe a few days and are dressed inappropriately and start talking about things with the all male crew that maybe they shouldn’t. They rely on their physical attributes to get them through the ride. And then when asked if they need to go over anything, then say “no, I’m good”. The heck you are, you’re just starting. You should be full of questions.
