· Operation of a sophisticated computerized network including retrieval and monitoring status changes as reflected by the computer system.

· Maintenance of multiple concurrent tasks or events without confusion.

· Frequent opportunities to demonstrate cognitive skills including analysis, comparison, priority setting, and re-evaluation based on new information.

Requirements:

· Proven experience as a dispatcher or a relevant position

· Tech-savvy with knowledge of relevant methods (Computer Aided Dispatch or CAD)

Closing Note:

“It’s true, you spend more time at work in your lifetime than not. So, where you work should represent what you believe in. You should be proud to wear the logo you choose to put on each day. At Physicians Ambulance, our people are our differential. That’s not just a nicely structured sentence, that’s the truth. We aren’t a perfect organization; no, we are still building the perfect organization– and it takes an army of good people to do it.

In a nutshell, we take care of our employees so they can take care of our customers. We do so by focusing most intently on clinical education, training and “the little details” that go a long way when caring for patients.

Our customers rave about our Paramedics, EMTs and Support Staff, because they are the best at what they do, the most caring, loving and passionate. I hope you consider coming in to see what makes us different.”
