Will be in the squad over the summer, what can i be expected to do as an observer on the ambulance?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
"lift heavy things": If not affiliated with the agency, and if not medically trained, usually actually do mainly observe, and assist the crew with moving equipment to/from location of patient. They handle the patient care. If medically trained, depending on their confidence, might be able to do minor assisting.
