Emt’s is one of the worst jobs to go into; here’s why

When you think of EMS companies, you think of someone trying to save another person’s life or even emergency transportation to a hospital for a broken leg or arm. While that’s true, there’s more that’s required from EMS.

Some people don’t know that people get transported to the hospital for non-emergency problems, like wounds or ailments.

People use EMS for doctor appointments.

A lot of the time, EMTs transport them from the hospital back home.

Regarding EMTs’ health, their bodies were done faster than an average individual. All that lifting and pulling people on and off stretchers affects their bodies. By the time they’re in their mid-20s, they have bad knees, hips, backs, and shoulders. They are leading to multiple surgeries.

A lot of them work in semi-poor conditions on top of working 24-hour shifts.

The pay grade for an EMT is 35000 a year, which is less than the average individual.

The only way to change these issues is for Ceos to make the change or have legislators create laws supporting EMTs. They are way too valuable to the average person. Nothing gets done because it all comes down to saving money at other people’s expense.
