When the call comes, be the one who goes
Volunteers have been part of Victor Farmington Ambulance since 1970, working the same trucks as our career staff. Eight hours a month makes you an active member.
Certified, or on your way to it
Certified EMTs, AEMTs, and Paramedics can apply today. Enrolled in a course but not finished yet? That counts too.

What each certification requires
EMT Basic
The state course runs about 160 hours. Finish it and you hold a New York State medical license number. Then comes our intern program: 20 hours of hands-on skills and real calls alongside a medic trainer.
EMT Advanced / Paramedic
One year minimum as an EMT opens the advanced classes. Critical Care adds about 480 hours, Paramedic about 1,000. At Paramedic you add 12-lead EKG and Advanced Cardiac Life Support, delivered to the patient before the hospital.
