Madison Bulard Highlight
The biggest appeal to me was the family aspect of [the paramedics]. Just hearing them talk about it and how proud they were of it, I was definitely like, ‘This is something I want to be a part of.’
About Madison
- I knew from the time I was in high school that I wanted to go into the medical field but I knew that four or more years of college was not for me.
- During my senior year of high school, I took a class that let me shadow professionals in and out of hospital settings—after visiting an ambulance base, I knew that was the right fit for me.
- I went through St. Charles County Ambulance District’s EMT program, which breaks down to six months in medic school, six months at community college, and another year in medic school.
- I earned my medic license and have a couple more classes to complete at community college before earning my associates degree.
- There’s no shortage of healthcare jobs, so I was able to easily find an opportunity after earning my medic license.
- I currently work two ambulance jobs in order to round out my industry experience—I respond to 911 calls in my main role and then do hospital transfers part-time in my second role.
