Paramedics (6) - Hennepin EMS (Minneapolis, MN)


Recommended Posts

Hennepin EMS is hiring at least 6 FT paramedics (40hrs/week) for a February or March start date. As a service of Hennepin County Medical Center, an academic Level 1 Adult and Pediatric trauma center located in the urban core of Minneapolis, we serve 800,000 residents and a week day population of 1.2 million in 14 unique municipalities. Approximately 135 full time Paramedics are supported by 15 EMT-EMD dispatchers, 10 supervisors, 4 stock staff and 5 support and billing staff members. Last year, we completed over 64,000 encounters, with a UHU of around 0.44, but this is a staffing push to reduce to 0.38 (We added 20 additional positions last year to reduce UHU, but a 10% volume increase was seen).

Aggressive, industry leading protocols and research commitments help our paramedics perform excellent pre-hospital care in a system that ONLY does 911 response (NO IFT's). We are the market wage driver for the Minneapolis and St. Paul 7 county metro area and are enrolled in the state Police and Fire pension (PERA) that vests at 20 years and is 100% in 33 years. In addition to the intial uniform issue (~$1,000 worth), a year $500 uniform allowance is given.

27 Road Rescue Ultramedic ambulances on Ford E350 V10 gasoline chassis that are nearly all equipped with Stryker's PowerLOAD system. We have fully deployed LUCAS2, Zoll E-Series (for another 2-3 years), TriTech's VisiCAD, OPEN's SafetyPAD tablet based ePCR, Stryker StairPRO chairs, and Motorola's series of APX portable and mobile radios on a 99% in-building portable coverage P25 trunked system.

Out of state applicants can often Skype interview and receive serious consideration (1/2 of last hire group was out of state).

Hennepin EMS is a career, everything else is a job.

as long as you come up with a social security number that is nine numbers long and no letters or characters, I don't see any reason they wouldn't see you as legit...

Actually, we have a couple foreigners here. A Kiwi, a couple Canadians, a Korean and some other ethnicity completing our rainbow of diversity.

Ill admit, its a corny line, but in my defense, people retire from Hennepin, everywhere else sees people move on towards "greener pastures" or providers leave ems because their spine exploded. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
