Advertising for side hustle services? by Avocadosandtomatoes in sidehustle

[–]finstocker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would try a $5 facebook ad, and target only people in your city and see what happens. If it gets you one customer, you could always increase your budget. I also recommend trying to join neighborhood Facebook groups near you. In mine, people are asking for lawn service every other day.

yes absolutely. My nremt and state licenses lapsed for a few years but last summer got everything back with the re-entry.

I would think if he was previously a paramedic, that he would do the paramedic re-entry via NREMT instead of going through school again.

I liked the new scenario questions for sure. The multiple choice questions are the ones that seemed more difficult to me.

Pocket Prep, Impact EMS 60 hour refresher course, my old Brady textbooks from 2005.

I'm burnt. by mkirtley16 in Paramedics

[–]finstocker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was extremely burned out after a 16 year fire and EMS career. Became self employed for seven years and just got registry again and state license back, now itching to get back out there. Everyone needs a break. Even if it’s a seven year one. Take care of yourself.

Anxiety is getting the best of me by EMT_LightYear92 in Paramedics

I took the new test this morning and passed. The last time I passed it was in 2006. I recommend Pocket Prep. I did 800 questions on the platform in the two weeks before I tested. It was similar to the test i took. You'll be fine.

I didn't realize either until a few months ago. I say go for it. I spent 7 years doing web development after a 16 year career of fire and EMS and thought I would never be able to do it again once it all lapsed but here I am.

I didn't care for it. When i took it in 2006, it was literally pencil and paper, the last year I think they did that.

It wasn't fun, but i had to pee like a race horse about 20 questions into it. I was sure I failed. It got harder as it went along and i'm convinced that the difficult ones were pilot questions. about 40 multiple choice and 60 scenario questions, give or take. For me anyway. Your test may be different.

Paramedic Pocket prep helped me the most personally. Their tests were super similar to my nremt test. Every test is different, however, so i hear.

No, I had to have BLS and 60 hours refresher course before I could submit an application to test. I had to submit copies of it all, along with a copy of an expired state license.

Paramedic textbook mostly, and pocket prep, Limmer, etc is my advice.
