Abstract

Although EMS recruitment and retention issues have been frequently discussed, little scientific research has been conducted to determine why people are entering and leaving the EMS field. To date no research has been done to analyze the demographics of people enrolling in EMT classes and determine what their attitudes and expectations are for employment.
