Ambulance Dispatcher

Duties and Responsibilities:

An ambulance dispatcher operates on radio, telephone, or computer equipment at emergency response centers. They receive distress calls from public people when needed help. Their job is to alert the ambulance so they can help the person in urgent medical need when they call for help.

Salary: $36,300 per year $17.45 per hour

Education:

They at least need to have a high school diploma. Programs and courses are offered through community and technical colleges, state agencies, professional organizations and approved training facilities.

In my opinion I wouldn’t want to be one because I’d rather be the one in the ambulance going to help a person than to sit in a chair and look at a computer screen for hours.
