Hey guys, anyone know anything about driving an ambulance in New Orleans? Are the drivers usually at least EMT-B's or are they hired to specifically drive? Part-time/full-time? CDL required? What are the major companies that hire?

Tough to find info on the internet and I don't know anyone working there personally. Thanks in advance for the help.

Try Acadian. I think they're the biggest local player.
