I finished my EMT Basic and EMT-Intermediate level and am now moving on to Paramedic school, and do the fire academy at the same time, currently not working for any department yet.
During one of my EMT classes awhile back (before I took my CWP class or carried) they mentioned something about carrying on the apparatus or while on duty, something to the affect that you can't as it's a federal law? Does anyone know any information about this or can corroborate? Is it against the law to carry on an ambulance/fire truck? or for Healthcare providers: i.e. EMT's/Paramedics etcto carry on duty?
Maybe its just per deparment SOPs or state regulation or something. Curious if there is any laws
