Paramedic Aurora,

Falck Rocky Mountain is now hiring for Paramedics! Falck provides a family-like environment while being part of a global company.

We respond to over 42,000 calls each year, and the majority of our responses are 911 calls with the City of Aurora and Buckley Air Force Base. Our partners with Aurora Fire Rescue ride in on approximately 25% of our 911 transports. Come join the team that out performs both State of Colorado and U.S. averages on cardiac arrest resuscitation. With our partners, Falck continues to lead in neurologic survivability of patients who have a cardiac arrest event.

Survivability increased from 18% in 2019 to 24% in 2021, and we hope to continue this trend as we strive for excellence in our application of evidence-based medicine.

We are advancing the practice of EMS by being one of only 184 ET3 (Emergency triage, treatment, and transport) ambulance providers in the nation as selected by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). Through this program, we deliver telehealth and alternate destination capabilities for our patients. We are one of six ambulance services in Colorado accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Ambulance Services (CAAS).

We provide in-house peer support with clinical oversight, monthly paid CEs, a 6% 401 (k) match, robust medical/dental/vision plans, and free access to an online learning platform.
