Daniel Hebert is only four months into his job at EMT-Basic with Acadian Ambulance, but already he already knows what pressure his employer and industry are facing when it comes to staffing.
There are overtime shifts. Some employees don t like it, but it s the reality in an industry that is having significant difficulty in finding employees.
Also part of that reality? Off days that wind up being off days are rare. If I have an off day and I don t get called, it s kind of weird, said Hebert, who graduated from Acadiana High School last May and began with Acadian in December. It s pretty close to every day. I don t go in every day. Sometimes I do tell them no.
