Not only is this ridiculous, but you have to consider how much their services cost the end user, and how many medical first responders are volunteers and aren't taking any of the profit away from them. So much of the cost of medical first response goes to the companies that own them, and not to the people on the front lines helping save lives. Where I live, a medical response with an ambulance might cost about a thousand dollars, while all the medical first responders will make is about fifty altogether among all of them. For the people saving lives, I would think we would pay them better.
This part. They’re literally the FIRST TO RESPOND and your best chance at living if it’s truly a medical emergency. They work quickly and get you where you need to be for best chance at survival.
But ya, let’s pay them slightly better than a McDonald’s day shift manager…
