Orlando Area EMS Providers

[LoneRider]

Greetings,

I'm considering becoming an EMT-Paramedic after my hitch with the Navy expires (I already have a college degree, so I can focus exclusively on the EMT program).

I'm curious about what Orlando Area providers exist? I personally wouldn't mind working with an FD as well (I've got almost two years working with damage control onboard my last ship).

Currently I'm on an Individual Augmentee assignment here in Iraq (basically a sailor supporting an Army battalion) and I've gotten CLS (Combat Life Saver) qualified. Basically it states I can do basic combat life saving, up to inserting an IV into someone and I'm doing some sustainment training with my unit's medics and our medical officer. I also saved the text book for that CLS course and am studying it.

Also, how good are most area providers at supporting National Guard/Reservists? I'm definitely converting to the Army National Guard after my Navy hitch expires, to work in Florida.

Regards,
