American Medical Response Employer Reviews

Nice location. friendly staff. A lot of community involvement

I do not recommend this company do to the fact they do not respect you unless you are related or a close family friend of one of the upper management consisiting of the true life "Good old White Boys Club" . It's to bad they don't promote women or minorities. I worked here for 13 years and never saw a africian american stayed employeed for more than – more...  1 year. In my jobs there this was the norm in all departments. – less

I was able to learn many medical skills with this job. I welcomed any difficult circumstances, as it helped me figure out what was necessary to be done.

On a daily basis, receive and dispatch incoming 911 and routine ambulance traffic. Learning to be the calm in a emrgency situation. Management was a constant presence, encouraging a stable environment to serve. Co-workers support each other throughout the shift and off shift.
The hardest part was not knowing the out come at time. There is always the – more...  unforeseen element.
The support from management and staff created a sense of family and care. For the highs and lows of the job, they were there. – less

I learned medical terminology, ICD-9 coding, and HIPAA laws.

love running EMS and interfacility....great to start your EMS career....dont expect to upgrade right away

AMR promotes a work environment free of clutter, is quiet and work focused. I loved working for the company and agreed with most of the policies and procedures and would still be there if my position were still available. Management is approachable, will in most cases assist you in your needs. Co-workers were wonderful and team players. The hardest – more...  part of my position was the fact that I was not trained to do some of the other functions and was not as involved in that part of the job. I was given the oppurtunity to learn most of the other aspects of the job by training for a few weeks but I was not proficient in those job positions as well as the position I was trained in and worked in for 13 years, I enjoyed my time at AMR and like I said before, would still be there if my position was not downsized. – less

a typical day was fun and always a learning experience fun management as well as coworkers stand by jobs always fun and entertaining hardest part of the job was being mandated

American Medical Response has the lowest benefits package in the industry. Pay scales are at the low end of what other companies give.

I am a paramedic at heart, I enjoyed working at AMR until it became more about liability and paperwork than about the people.

Working in a 911 system can be difficult when your company dose not support you but with AMR behind you things worked out the way they should. Through hard times and injuries the company had supported me and made me feel like I was more them a employee.

Overall good experience with amazing co-workers! A true team environment.

I learned so much while with AMR it had a wonderful family feel to it

I worked for this company for seven years and went into work one day and we were gone. No warning very unprofessiona.

great company to work for they were always there when anything went wrong on shift

Management here is more concerned with their ambulances and equipment instead of the emergency medical technicians that use them.

Fair work environment. Fair management and fair working conditions.

This is a great company top work for, ther is also room for advancement. Great Company
