How to Become a Flight Paramedic | (FP-C) Course & Training from IA MED

[@Fireflight702]

I used your course, passed my FPC first time and have been a flight paramedic for a year now. It is the most challenging and rewarding job I have had so far. Keep up the good work guys

[@louispapas7541]

Looking to get out of the military and taking my flight medic exam on the 22nd. Thanks for all of your help, IA Med.

[@stevenhall1097]

I worked at the U of U hospital a while ago. Loved seeing the helicopters come in. Thanks for your hard work.

[@brettlorge9063]

This was awesome. Thank you for the info - I just finished a BS in Kinesiology, now joining the national guard as a combat medic to get that EMT-B cert. Flight medic is the end goal! 🤘🏼

[@IAMEDICINE]

Right, on Brett! Thank you for your future service. Let us know when you're ready for the skies, were more than happy to help you achieve those goals, sir.

[@Matt-bg6kf]

Get your BSN and paramedic ... doesn’t waste time ... more job opportunities after you realize flight isn’t all that

[@girishjose4356]

could you mention CE program meets the entire requirement of FPC recertification, please

[@IAMEDICINE]

Girish Jose Hi! The program offers 45 hours of in-person (CAPCE code F2) continuing education accepted by the NREMT and state EMS agencies. Let us know if we can answer any other questions for you!

[@IAMEDICINE]

You can see all the FP-C prep and recertification courses at www.iamed.us/

[@reginaldjohnsonrocks]

What are the exact requirements? X amount of flight hours, college credits, ect? I am from Utah and plan on starting flight school soon just need a little more money and I’m set. I’m curious what extra requirements are needed than what is required for a normal helicopter pilot job.

[@JM-nh8yp]

Only 4800 CERTIFIED Flight Paramedics. That doesn't accurately explain how many flight paramedics there are. Only a fraction of flight paramedics are CERTIFIED!

[@Matt-bg6kf]

And only a fraction of the FP-C actually fly ...

[@AmberAyres]

Sorry to ask a dumb question, but what is “capcia accredited” I think I misheard but I’m having trouble figuring out what that is?

[@jamesringler987]

Possibly CAPCE accredited courses

[@anthonyclase1528]

Very very helpful

[@IAMEDICINE]

Thanks, Antonio we are glad you enjoyed it!

[@yuckabuster]

How long were you a firefighter... what was your rank.....

[@mcbins1993]

Can you go from nothing to flight paramedic or need to work as a regular paramedic for a while ?

[@IAMEDICINE]

Mc - No you would not be able to go straight to a flight paramedic. You would first need to obtain your paramedic certification. Afterward depending on the program, you would be able to apply. A majority of programs in the US are accredited by CAMTS or NAAMTA which require a minimum of 3 years experience as a paramedic in a busy 911 system or equivenlent. We have a free How to Become a Flight Paramedic course dropping next week so keep your eyes out. It will review many questions you may have along with, interview tips, resume writing, and what to expect on the journey to becoming a Flight Paramedic. We thank you for the interest, you can check out more and some of our blogs at www.iamed.us/

[@maribelcruz9822]

im 35 do you see flight medics at my age and older if you average fit? or is that too old to start to reach this level

[@adamr8628]

I started flying at age 46.. Now age 53 and still flying rotor wing. I honestly dont physically feel any different than I did at age 25.

[@kevinlam7947]

Let's not forget price, it cost so much for training and it's all out of pocket I wanted to get my helicopter license but it's about 75,000-100,000$

[@IAMEDICINE]

kevin lam it all depends on where your located for the US paramedic and additional training is around $6-10k

[@floored3078]

@@IAMEDICINE I think he means Rotor Pilot, which is Obviously something completely different.

[@floored3078]

The pilots a Completely separate entity, They don't exit the Helicopter. The job they have is to fly, which requires a whole different path in education. Being a flight paramedic does not mean you are a pilot. With Paramedic income, they can afford the training if they want. I would think it would be more of a hobby than a job to them because they focused a long time on being a top medical professional.
