Job Description
Summary:
The Flight Paramedic extends the healing ministry of Jesus Christ by caring for critically ill and injured persons in the air medical environment. Practice is carried out with a high degree of independence in challenging out-of-hospital environments and at regional health care facilities. The position has significant responsibility for public relations and involves interacting with a wide range of healthcare and public safety professionals in stressful situations. The position requires subject matter management skills and independent work on projects to support Flight For Life operations. The position requires adherence to rigorous standards of safety. This position coordinates transport operations/clinical care with the Flight Nurse and Pilot crew members in conjunction with policies and procedures that have been established by Flight For Life Administration, the Flight For Life Medical Director, and Flight For Life’s contracted aviation services (FAA Part 135) operator.
The Flight Paramedic will be assigned a primary Flight For Life base, but may be reassigned to another base within Flight For Life as program needs may dictate. The Flight Paramedic is responsible for other duties as assigned to support program clinical operations. Substantial orientation and ongoing training is devoted to incoming Associates to support their developmental success as the program has rigorous after-hire credentialing requirements, including dual board certification.
Requirements:
· Minimum of three years of experience working in a moderate to high-volume ALS setting; greater than five years strongly preferred. Mixed ALS/critical care transport experience preferred.
· Current paramedic certification by the State of Texas required upon hire.

· Previous flight or critical care transport experience highly preferred.
· Emotional stability to function effectively in unpredictable situations.
· Problem solving skills and ability to exercise independent judgment and seek
