Paramedic work - USA
2 Answers
Can anyone please tell me how one goes about becoming a Paramedic in the USA? I have 24 years experience as a Paramedic in London and would like to transfer. Would I have to re-train again from scratch or will they recognise my qualifications - I am also an RGN & RMN.
Thanks
