The Life of an EMT

"We usually travel in teams of two -- a driver and a tech. We trade off after each call. If I'm the driver on the first call, he or she is on the second and I become the tech. We protect ourselves best we can with gloves and masks.

"We don't just answer calls in San Francisco but all over Northern California up to Redding. The other day we went to a small town, I think it was called Willits.

"I like this work and am glad I can do it."
