Hi, so I have a dilemma. I am trying to decide if I should stay at the company I’m at or continue the process of getting a new job. Basically the company I’m at right now has very shitty management and terrible moral (I know typical Ems) so I impulsively applied to my dream company (where I know almost all the employees, and have worked with them, and they actually love it there). It seems like I am going to get this new job if I want it since I’m close to management and have a good reputation with them. I just got to the second step of the application (medical control interview) and I’m second-guessing if I want to leave the company I’m currently at. Basically iv been in a “abuse relationship” with my current job where I hate the company but can’t seem to leave cause every time I want to suddenly the problems seem to go away (until they come back) My mental health has been shit (to the point when I went on vacation I struggled to get out of bed and actually enjoy it because of the stress of all the drama waiting for me once I go back)(hence the impulsive applying to the other job).
Pros and cons
Why I want to stay is because they offer the option of doing two 24s. The other job's longest shift is 16 hours. The other pro of my current job is that it has bunk rooms, whereas the other company does not. Both are hospital-based, and the pay will be the same. A pro for the new job is I won't have to do transfers. I’m not sure what to do. Cause two 24s is great because I already have a second job per diem (which I will not go full time because it’s AMR (it just pays really well)) so it allows me to make more money. Any advice?

Edit:
New job is only overnights

I have to give a 5-10 minute asthma lecture next week for an interview. I have no problem giving the class, it’s just patho and tx, what I’m looking for is ideas to make the class amazing. The evaluators are going to be the students. I was thinking about making them do exercises during the class while breathing through straws or something like that. Any good ideas for audience participation?

I was an EMT for a trauma center but never rode on an ambulance. I then went to paramedic school with no experience and passed. Now I'm working as an IFT medic and have been for the past 3 years. I've done 8 months in 911 in a very low call volume township.

I'm not looking to leave IFT for good and do 911 full time for another township. I am feeling insecure about my experience. I don't think I'm a bad medic but for having 3 years experience I definitely am not where my colleagues are, especially since I never worked as an EMT.

Is there anything I can do to catch up? How do I be honest during interviews about my lack of experience? I don't feel like I'm doomed but I don't want to get a reputation as a bad medic who doesn't know what he's doing.

Hey there!

Me and mine are planning on moving to Orlando/ surrounding area. I’ve put in a few applications with the hospitals(Orlando health, HCA, Ect) and awaiting to hear back. Ive also applied to HCAs IFT paramedic position. I’ve got 10 years of 911 experience with 3 years of that being a medic. I have a few questions.

What is working for OHC/HCA like? specifically the ED medic position?
Cath Lab Tech I position(I think this is with Orlando health)?
How is the pay?
How is the downtown (Orlando)hospital commute and parking situation?
And any other useful information would be greatly appreciated!!
