This rural truck works off of a shift schedule of 24 hours on and 72 hours off. Call volume averages at 4-6 transports per day with response times averaging from 5-25 minutes and transport times averaging from 30-70 minutes.

We practice real medicine here. In this progressive system, we are with patients long enough to see the effects of our treatments, and we need competent and aggressive providers.

If you are a FF/EMT or a FF/Paramedic, we invite you to get your name on the list for our next testing cycle. Paramedics in Lewisburg can opt to be Paramedic only providers. All positions in Lewisburg are full-time, but we do also accept volunteer applications for medical providers. (Great for PHRN’s and Pre-Hospital Extenders (PA’s) that are looking to get field experience or break up the monotony of the clinic).

We practice the entire scope of the PA state protocols for both BLS and ALS providers.

PRO’s:
Excellent management that works in the field and shares the struggles of all providers and firefighters.

Competitive and/or comparable pay and benefits to other agencies in the region.

Progressive medical practice; if it is in the protocol, we do it or have a plan to get there.

Excellent HR and administration: Here you are not a number, but a person with needs, wants, and desires that our management and administrative teams actually care about!

Opportunities for promotion, special assignments, and general advancement.

We are an IAFF local #4917!

CON's: I can't think of any!
