New BLS and ALS Openings (Amherst, VA)

Our dedicated EMT/FFs and Paramedic/FFs respond to over 5,000 calls to service each year. Calls originate from areas in both urban and rural settings, giving our providers the opportunity to work in a fast-paced environment with the ability to develop their patient care skills transporting critical patients over long distances.  We utilize Zoll monitors, a Hamilton T1 ventilator, POC Ultrasound, and IV pumps to provide the best care to our patients. Coupled with a progressive Medical Director and agency-specific protocols, Amherst County Public Safety is a premiere EMS organization in the Blue Ridge region.

We also partner with the Amherst County volunteer fire departments for training and call response.  Our staff are cross-trained in firefighting operations and can assist where needed on the fireground.  We hold quarterly department-wide training and alternate the topics each quarter between firefighting/rescue and EMS.
