I was told that an EMT/Paramedic with The Villages was making approx. $9.60 an hour. These are the guys/gals who perform CPR, administer life saving medications on scene, assist Fire Department and are with you in the ambulance on the way to the ER. I happen to know many of these men/women.
I was AMAZED at how little this job paid....I know that the pay scale for Florida is much lower than my previous place (Virginia)...but again surprised.
