musicislife Posted September 21, 2013 Posted September 21, 2013 Hi, So i have been tasked with interviewing a healthcare professional (besides an EMT-B, since i am one) for a health care class that I am taking. I am interested in being a paramedic, so I would like to interview one. I also need your first name and your years experience as a paramedic. Thanks for your time! What is the function/description of your discipline? What educational and professional credentials are required for the discipline? What kind of settings/environment do people in your field work in? What personality traits and/or characteristics must an individual have to be “cut-out” for this discipline? What drew you to this particular discipline?

LIke interviewing a PA or a MD> And you should be doing this interview in person rather than off an anonymous internet site. If you transport patients to a hospital why not just grab a nurse and ask them those questions at the hospital if they aren't busy. Edited September 23, 2013 by Captain ToHellWithItAll
jwiley40 Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 I have to agree with the Captain. You're not going to be interviewing a patient over the internet. It's going to be in person. This is how you learn your interpersonal relationships and find out how you create a rapport with a future patient. That, for me is one of the most important things about being a medic. It's not all about the medicine; it's about people. They will know if you're fake or not.
