EMT salary?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, one can surely live off an EMT salary. As per the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the mean yearly salary of an EMT is around $34,000. Many top earners have also been reported to take $51,000 home every year. That said, the cost of living also impacts the income-expenditure curve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"why-are-emts-paid-so-little\"><\/span>Why are EMTs paid so little?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The major reason for a low salary for an EMT is the time put in for certification and training. It is just one-tenth or even less than what a paramedic is expected of. Just 120-150 hours of training makes you an EMT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-dangerous-is-being-an-emt\"><\/span>How Dangerous Is Being an EMT?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many job hazards of being an EMT:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>They are the ones who are present at sites that are termed as dangerous for the general public, like terrorist attack spots or spots where a fire broke out.<\/li><li>They are involved in lifting and transporting patients along with the necessary equipment.<\/li><li>At times, they deal with combative\/psych patients first hand;<\/li><li>They are exposed to dangerous chemicals and viruses.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"who-makes-more-money-emt-or-paramedic\"><\/span>Who makes more money: EMT or paramedic?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the EMT vs paramedic salary comparison, a paramedic makes more money than an EMT because of the advanced education and training involved. A paramedic can earn as much as $70,000 a year, however, the average salary of a paramedic is about $40,000 a year. On the other hand, an EMT can make as much as $51,000 a year, however, the average salary of an EMT is about $34,000 a year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-long-do-you-go-to-school-to-become-a-paramedic\"><\/span>How long do you go to school to become a paramedic?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The \u2018EMT paramedic school\u2019 query reveals that you need to finish your high school before joining the training for any of these professions. About a year-long basic EMT training is then acquired to learn the basics of medical services. A paramedic is then required to pursue a two-year associate degree to learn the skills of advanced emergency medical services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-hard-is-it-to-get-emt-certified\"><\/span>How hard is it to get EMT certified?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It is not very hard to get EMT certified. After high school, you just require 120-150 hours of training and learn the basics of emergency medical services. If you are dedicated and focused on your training, you can easily clear the certification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"can-you-get-your-emt-certification-online\"><\/span>Can you get your EMT certification online?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It is possible to complete the partial EMT certification process online. Some colleges offer hybrid EMT training covering some part of certification in the form of web-based coursework.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-college-should-i-go-to-if-i-want-to-be-a-paramedic\"><\/span>What college should I go to if I want to be a paramedic?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A college degree is not needed to become a paramedic. You will have to join a community college to receive certain certifications before passing the national exam held by the National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians (NREMT).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-qualifications-do-i-need-to-be-a-paramedic\"><\/span>What qualifications do I need to be a paramedic?&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Three training levels namely EMT &#8211; Basic Program, EMT &#8211; Advanced Program, and Paramedic Program are required to be undertaken. Additionally, two-part certification exams namely The cognitive exam and The psychomotor exam need to be passed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-is-the-difference-between-emt-and-paramedic\"><\/span>What is the difference between EMT and paramedic?&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table alignfull\"><table><thead><tr><th>Basis<\/th><th>EMT<\/th><th>Paramedics<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Level&nbsp;<\/td><td>The level of medical care training is Basic to Intermediate.<\/td><td>It includes Advanced level of medical care programs.&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>EMT paramedic training hours<\/td><td>EMT course duration is around 120-150 hours.<\/td><td>Paramedics course length can be anywhere between 1200-1800 hours.&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Duties<\/td><td>EMTs aren\u2019t trained to lend advanced life support care.<\/td><td>Paramedics are trained to lend advanced life support care.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Limitations<\/td><td>EMTs are barred from administering invasive medical procedures.<\/td><td>Paramedics are allowed to administer medicines with the help of needles if need be.<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Payscale<\/td><td>It has a lower pay scale.<\/td><td>It earns more than EMTs.&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Renewal<\/td><td>EMTs need to attend 40-hour training for the renewal of their certification.<\/td><td>Paramedics are required to attend a 60-hour training program for renewing their certification.&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"considering-the-similarities-between-an-emt-and-a-paramedic-for-further-clarity\"><\/span>Considering the similarities between an EMT and a paramedic for further clarity<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Both EMT and Paramedics are trained to lend basic life care support to a patient.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Both EMTs and Paramedics must be certified and licensed by the concerned state to operate within.<\/li><li>Both EMT and Paramedics courses require you to be 18 years of age and a high school graduate.<\/li><li>Both professions need you to acquire emergency medical training for knowledge and experience.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Both practitioners are required to renew their certification, generally every two years.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-is-a-better-profession-when-choosing-between-emt-and-paramedics\"><\/span>What is a better profession when choosing between EMT and paramedics?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Both EMT and paramedic professions are rewarding for a medical professional since you get to save the lives of people while rendering emergency medical services. From a salary point of view, however, a paramedic would earn much more than an EMT.
