Hello guys. The title say most of what I want to ask. Now I know there is billions of threads on this topic and forgive me if i did not put it in the right forum. I just want some recent input because all the threads I've looked at have been old.
I want to know what the difference is between them. Other than one is for EMS and one is in a hospital. I am currently in school to be a paramedic but after doing research I thought nursing might be an option. If I were to do nursing I would want to be an ER Nurse and I would get an associates degree and later on get my bachelors but mainly start out with an associates degree. If I chose to be a paramedic I don't mind the idea of being an ambulance at all but I've always thought it would be cool to be an ER Paramedic in a hospital. I would like some input if you guys could on that as well.
Basically
1. What is the biggest differences between them and what exactly are a nurses restrictions when it comes to being in the ER?
2. What are the restrictions of a Paramedic in the ER?
3. Would I be better to become a nurse if I'm only getting my associates and not my bachelors?
thanks in advance for the input guys! If you have experience with both fields that would be great!
