Are the EVOC classes always offer by the service? Can you take them before you get the job? I would be interested in adding an EVOC to my education even though I am not currently applying to ambulance jobs. I am happy, for now, getting my experience at a hospital.

While I have not transported either to or from a dialysis center in over 25 years, one thing was beaten into me by the staffs at the various centers: NOBODY but the patients are to sit in those chairs, due to understandable concerns of Blood Borne Pathogen contaminations, either from or to the dialysis patients. We usually were allowed, begrudgingly, to use a corner of the receptionist's desk.

Maybe that is just the way things were done in the NYC area, the centers by you might be less stringent in this type enforcement, or times have changed in that aforementioned 25 years.

we have an EMS office at our local hospital :wink:
