The department I work with has a medic that does not drive at all... she simply is a medic aka pt. care all the time. She is ALS- working on paramedic. I also know another EMT-basic that never drives because the flashing lights cause her to lose control of brain function and motor control... pt. and crew safety at risk there, she is fine in the back but not as a driver so she too is always pt. care. So it is possible to just be pt. care, it really depends on the Agency. I would suggest talking about it with the DO first to make sure at the agency you want to work for. It never hurts to try! Good luck with it, and volunteer to do some rides b4 you take the class to make sure that the field is for you.
