This does exist. There is an unknown what a paramedics does and knows. There is also a fear that a paramedic may not understand the new flow of things. There is ignorance on each side of this argument. I wouldn't want to work for a place that has a "fear" ie: ignorance of medical experience. Find a different place that value's what you bring to the table, also this thought goes both ways. I have been part of this before. I have 5 year military flight paramedic experience, 3 years civilian flight.. (RN, CFRN, NRP, CCP-C, FP-C) plus I am a 31 year old male for what that is worth... I actually had this come up in job interviews before. "how do you think you would work as a RN compared to your past as a paramedic"... be honest, open and humble..
