Paramedicine can be a challenging and rewarding career. That’s partly why we receive so many applications for each open position. Although all of Ontario’s paramedic services strive to meet the same standards for patient care and service delivery, not all are exactly alike. Applying to work with a service that fits your personal and career goals is an important decision.
These are just a few qualities to consider that distinguish Frontenac Paramedics:
Just the right size: Frontenac Paramedics is small enough that paramedics personally get to know each other, their patients, and local medical staff but large enough that they get to experience a wide variety of calls in a wide variety of settings, both urban and rural.
Career growth and development: Frontenac Paramedics supercharge their credentials at St. Lawrence College or Queen’s University. They may serve on a range of Frontenac Paramedics specialty teams, work as Community Paramedics, learn new on-the-job skills, and formally expand their leadership capabilities.
Quality of life in Kingston and Frontenac County: Frontenac Paramedics enjoy a wide variety of lifestyle options for themselves and their families all while in easy proximity to three of Canada’s largest cities. Work in Kingston. Live in the country. Eat breakfast at home and be in any of Toronto, Ottawa, or Montreal before lunch.
Supportive and engaging work environment: Frontenac Paramedics has a wide array of mentorship opportunities, formal and informal mental health and hygiene supports, and easy access to responsive leadership. Frontenac Paramedics come from all backgrounds and walks of life. We believe that the differences among us make us stronger.

Hi Olivia. Thanks for your question. We aren't generally in a postion to be able to offer ride-alongs for high school students or members of the general public but there is a way for paramedic students to ride along with Frontenac Paramedics. When you're admitted into a paramedic program, faculty or your program placement coordinator can help you to explore that further. Student ride-alongs are coordinated between pramedicine program administrators at colleges and respective paramedic services.
Thank you for your contribution!
