Experience:

 

Good Fellowship is the largest and busiest EMS organization in Chester County, PA, uniquely delivering emergency medical services to the community in a combination career/volunteer system

Live-Ins have access to Good Fellowship’s top-performing EMS education institute that trains thousands of individuals every year. Live-ins benefit from no-cost continuing education programs and cutting-edge simulation experiences. Live-ins may also transition into instructor roles in the educational institute if they choose to.

 

Program Requirements:

 

Live-ins must be certified as an EMT, Advanced EMT or Paramedic and complete Good Fellowship’s field training program.

Live-ins cover 18 hours weekly (Sun-Sat) of scheduled time as a volunteer EMT, AEMT or Paramedic.

We allow for flexible 6 or 12 hour day and/or night shifts that are scheduled at least one month in advance.

Additional hours / call coverage during busy times will enable the resident to benefit from our Volunteer Incentive Point program, providing uniform items and/or gift cards.

One relief week (week off) is provided for every 16 weeks of live-in time.
