What are some NG options to attend Flight Paramedic School through other states? Also, how can I volunteer for a deployment?

I am limited to any opportunities in my state to be sent to the Critical Care Flight Paramedic School. Phase I (300-F1) I am currently a 68w. I have been looking around but it has been difficult to find and contact people in other states. I am looking for any advice or contact information from any state or unit to be sent. I am also interested in volunteering for deployment. I have been keeping an eye out on mobcop and neighboring states. Any advice or information would be appreciated. I feel a little stuck!

Hey I’m trying to get info for that as well. If you find anything or anyone else can help out with this, I’d be interested as well.

There is a NG unit in California you might want to check into.

You can access the mobcop.army.mil website from a government computer to apply for mobilizations, ados, coados, and agr positions. In the recent past there have been a number of eucom, Africom, southcom, and centcom medic deployments. As far as Flight paramedic, you definitely can go but you need to be in a unit that has the asi on the umr. It is a 9 month course and any unit that is going to send you is going to want some retainability for what they are going to pay for you to go.

If you work civilian side for a service that does critical care transports, you can at least get either FP-C or CCP-C and it won’t be a complete waste of money. This at least gets you a leg up in training because it’s less training on the back end.
