At Priority Care Ambulance Service, Full-Time Emergency Medical Service (EMS) providers schedule operates on a unique and structured rotation to balance work and rest, ensuring that providers maintain high performance and mental acuity while offering necessary services around the clock.

 

Schedule Breakdown:

  • 24 on: This refers to a 24-hour shift where the EMS provider is on duty. During this period, the provider is responsible for responding to emergency calls, providing care, transporting patients, and undertaking any other tasks associated with emergency medical services. It is a continuous and demanding shift that requires the EMS provider to be available at all times during the 24-hour period.

  • 24 off: Following the 24-hour shift on duty, the EMS provider gets a 24-hour rest period. This break is essential for recuperation, ensuring providers can rest thoroughly, recover from any physical and mental strain incurred during their shift, and maintain a healthy work-life balance.

Thursday

Benefits of the 24 On/24 Off/24 On/120 Off Schedule:

  • Optimal Rest: The 5-day break ensures EMS providers have ample time to rest and recover, which is crucial given the high-stress nature of the job. It helps reduce burnout and maintain overall health and well-being.

  • Work-Life Balance: The 5-day break allows providers to spend quality time with family, engage in personal activities, and manage life responsibilities effectively, which is often a challenge in demanding professions.

  • Consistency: Having a fixed and predictable schedule helps providers plan their personal lives around work. It also allows for better coordination within the team and efficient staffing by the management.

  • High Performance: The well-rested providers are more alert and efficient during their shifts, ensuring high-quality care and quick response times, ultimately benefiting the patients and community they serve.
