If you have the natl cert & Ohio EMT you probably are good...Maybe BLS but usually you get that with EMT courses nowadays..

I'd honestly if you ever have time, go for EMT-P..it's always worth it, I doubt you'll ever see that stuff needed at an amusement park, but hell, it's always good to say "look what I can do"

ME HOPEFULLY! I'm from ATL

I am not going back next season but i worked in games then kamans.Working at cedar point is so much fun

Being able to say "look what I can do" will also earn you more money. Depending on where you get hired you can sometimes get the schooling paid for by contracting to work a certain amount of time after you complete the course. My husband got his paid for by a rural EMS department he was working for part time.

Yup...

Plus EMT-B in Ohio is pretty lame...you'll pretty much amount to C-Spine on the outside, you can't even start an IV and push fluids. EMT-P you basically can act under a much wider protocol and better standing orders than any EMT-B

I have a question. Do you guys think that I would be able to get a job with having bad grades? I try really hard in school but always had trouble. Just sitting still in class reading from books the whole day was never my thing. I usually get D's and C's in school. Do you guys think I have a low chance getting in as a ride host? I really want this job bad!

I don't think grades are one of the criteria to be hired, you should be fine.

I hope, I wanted to work at Cedar Point since I was a kid.

I will be back. This was the best summer of my life, I didn't want it to end. Just an amazing experience.

I bet it was, Can't wait to work!

Dillen Miller, the only major qualifications for you to be hired in as a ride host is that you're 18+ years old, have a clean record, and can pass a drug test.

Sad to see when first part is easy to pass..last two qualifications..lol

I remember seeing so many people during inprocessing...but didn't see them later lols

Do you guys think they will look at my grades anyways? thedevariouseeffect, what do you mean last two qualifications?

They were 18...

But not a clean record

Or not a clean pee :P

You better be back!

I'm pretty sure I'll be back next season. Merchandise as a TL.

Pretty sure i'll be back next year in rides:) This will be my fifth season and i'm hoping for Raptor or Maxair :)

Thanks for all of the advice, I'm actually going to school to be an RN right now (2 semesters left after this one) and want to do an RN to paramedic transition when I'm done because you can do that if you're already a NREMT in Ohio.
