Perth County's Paramedic Services Department is now accepting applications for the fall paramedic recruitment season.
During the fall of 2023, Perth County Paramedic Services is hoping to add 20 new team members as Primary Care Paramedics.
Recruitment will remain open until September 25. There are two new pathways to be recruited for current paramedics and new graduates.
Current Paramedics who are certified under an Ontario Base Hospital Group (OBHG) will be able to fast-track through at 3-day in class orientation. Both current and new paramedics are also eligible for certain expenses to be reimbursed such as Southwest Ontario Regional Base Hospital Program (SWORBHP) testing and AIV Certification and OPPAT testing, which will be reimbursed upon successful completion of the orientation process.
