♪MUSIC♪ >>HI.
MY NAME IS JOSH AND I'M A HELPER.
I'M VERY PROUD OF MY JOB BECAUSE I HELP PEOPLE WHEN THEY'RE INJURED OR SICK.
I'M A PARAMEDIC.
I'M TRAINED TO CARE FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN IN ACCIDENTS OR HAVING A MEDICAL EMERGENCY.
MY TEAM AND I THEN TAKE THEM TO THE HOSPITAL IN AN AMBULANCE OR A HELICOPTER TO BE EXAMINED BY A DOCTOR.
PARAMEDICS CAN BE LOCATED AT A HOSPITAL, FIRE STATION, OR OTHER RESCUE ORGANIZATIONS.
BUT YOU'LL MOST LIKELY SEE US OUT ON THE ROAD AND AROUND YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD.
OFTEN TIMES, WE WORK TOGETHER WITH OTHER HELPERS LIKE POLICE OFFICERS AND FIREFIGHTERS.
PARAMEDICS ARE IMPORTANT HELPERS IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD BECAUSE WE PROVIDE EMERGENCY CARE AND LIFE-SAVING MEDICAL ASSISTANCE.
>>TO MEET OTHER HELPERS IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD, GO TO MEETTHEHELPERS.ORG.
