500 years
Florida has two levels of certification for prehospital providers: EMT-Basic and EMT-Paramedic. Florida has over 49,000 certified EMTs and Paramedics. There are currently over 150 state approved initial training programs for individuals desiring to become certified as EMTs and Paramedics in the state of Florida.
It depends from state to state, but most requires you to work a full year as an EMT Basic before you can become an EMT Paramedic. You need to take the EMT Paramedic training and certification.
Every state is different, you should contact your local EMS service and see what the requirements are. You will have to first get certified as a First Responder and then get your EMT Certification.
I dont know you should ask someone who cares.
You become an EMT and work your way up. An EMT course at a community college is about 6 mos. After 2000 hrs as an EMT, you are certified as a paramedic.
Probably not going to happen.
Yes. Get GED & then become an EMT. After 2000 hrs as an emt you can qualify for paramedic.
The best way to become an EMT is to begin with researching First Aid courses locally available to you. Then, begin researching EMT, ambulance technician or paramedic programs at colleges near you and apply when you are ready and have the proper pre-requisites!
