I think myself and many of my colleagues would agree that the EMS job should pay more. Something closer to 2,500 - 4,000 per salary along with an additional couple thousand per revive. Raising the amount of money we make would 100% keep us more motivated for the job. I have been on duty as an EMS worker probably 4+ hours a day in the past 7 days and I have probably only made about 70k . I feel we don't make enough money for the amount of work we do. There should also be pay based on ranking which I believe the Police Department has. As a probationary medic I made the same amount as my captain and chief which is kind of bizarre. Another good idea is to add a tipping system. Give the patient an option to tip the medic or maybe advertise something that makes person want to tip us. I think the whole EMS crew would really appreciate and be happy if you put some thought into this suggestion.
Thanks
I totally think this would be a great change. please do consider.
fellow EMS here, i 100% agree, it would definitely motivate everyone to be more active!
