    A Career as an EMT

    Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) play a crucial role in healthcare, acting as the first responders during emergencies. They are dispatched by 911 operators and frequently collaborate with police and fire department personnel. EMTs provide vital medical care, ensuring patients receive prompt attention and transportation to the nearest hospital.

    Typical employers of EMTs include ambulance services, local government, general medical and surgical hospitals, and outpatient care centers. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), employment of EMTs is projected to grow 6 percent by 2033, which is faster than the average for all occupations (4 percent).

    Becoming an EMT can also lead to a steady source of income. The BLS reports that the average salary of Emergency Medical Technicians is about $44,790.

    To learn more, view our comprehensive career guide on how to become an EMT.
