I am now a nationally registered EMT! Only thing left is state license!

Pretty slick man.
I went to school for emergency telecommunications a few years ago and arrived on the conclusion that EMTs are the unsung heroes of the emergency services.

Thanks man! I hope to move on to get my phlebotomist cert to work as an ERT(same thing as EMT but you work in a hospital), and then maybe one day move on to med school if I can afford it and not die via debt.

Well having a game plan is a pretty solid starting point.
More than most people have.

Well congrats, 

Medical knowledge is important to me being that I am a Prepper. I was thinking of getting EMT certified but most likely I will be volunteer firefighting instead.

Being a firefighter is tough. I had a firefighter guy in class and he was always late because of the work he had to do before getting to class (the fire-station was paying for his training while he worked). I respect all EMS workers, each field has their own hardships and difficulties.

Well when it comes to saving lives, or even possibly saving peoples property and homes as well as businesses I don't think it matters how tough the job is, the only thing that matters is getting the job done and doing what is right.

Usually in my county there is a fire or some form of accident or emergency every day and most of the firefighters here volunteer.

That's pretty impressive that they are working that often without pay. I hear some states here in the USA operate like that, and I just couldn't afford to volunteer forever. I'm going to be doing it soon so I can build on-site experience for a job, but not for a long time, hopefully short term.
