Hi all,
New to posting on the forums here, but have read some excellent messages and thought this was the place to turn for help.
I am a licensed Paramedic in Connecticut with over 10 years experience in a progressive, albeit private, 911 response system. Yes, that's another way of saying AMR.....
Anyway, I took a leave from the field to pursue a goal of college and a family, both of which have been achieved. I have moved to Massachusetts and found that despite my background in EMS, Volunteer Firefighting, and various rescue certifications my age (33) is a stumbling block for acceptance onto many Massachusetts departments.
I am curious if anyone knows of any departments in RI/MA/NH/CT without an age restrictions or where I should begin to look - I would prefer to work in Massachusetts, but if my experience is not welcome due to my age, I'll gladly set up shop somewhere else -
Any thoughts?
Bill
