What does everyone think about first becomind a EMT before pursuing Nursing school?
The reason I am considering this:
1- Maturity - EMT work would be a excellent help in gaining maturity in the workplace.
2- Experience - Experience as an EMT would be great exp. for myself if I decided to pursue a career in ER or other areas.
3- Money - I make $7 an hour now... I would make more as an EMT hopefully enough to save so I could get into a BSN program.
Amongst other things...
What type of schooling does an EMT have to take and for how long?
How is the job market for EMT's?
