Written from this job description, not a generic list. Each one notes what the interviewer is really checking.
About your past
You'd work 3 p.m. to 3:30 a.m. in the Edward Hospital ED under an RN's direction. How is that different from running your own calls in the field?
What they are checking: Whether they can shift from being in charge on a rig to supporting a nurse-led team without friction.
Tell me about a time you dealt with an intoxicated or combative patient.
What they are checking: Whether they stay calm, keep everyone safe and use de-escalation before force.
Tell me about a time you got feedback from a nurse or doctor and how you handled it.
What they are checking: Whether they can take direction and follow through, which the posting names as a key skill.
The shift runs until 3:30 a.m. with rotating weekends and holidays. How do you stay sharp late in the shift?
What they are checking: Whether they have real habits for staying alert and safe at the end of a long evening shift.
What would you do
A patient you're watching suddenly becomes pale and sweaty and says their chest hurts. What do you do?
What they are checking: Whether they act quickly within their role, get a 12-lead going and alert the RN right away.
The RN asks you to do something you think is outside your scope in the hospital. How do you handle it?
What they are checking: Whether they know hospital scope differs from field scope and speak up rather than just doing it.
You have three patients needing things at once and the nurses are busy. How do you prioritize?
What they are checking: Whether they put the sickest first and tell the RN what they're doing so nothing is missed.
About the work
What tasks are you comfortable doing in an ED, like IVs, 12-leads or splinting?
What they are checking: Whether their paramedic skills match the hands-on tasks the ED relies on techs to do.
How do you help during a trauma or code when several people are in the room?
What they are checking: Whether they know their role in a resuscitation, like compressions or monitoring, and stay out of the way otherwise.
How do you report vital signs or changes to the nurse so they can act on them?
What they are checking: Whether they communicate clearly and quickly about abnormal findings instead of just charting them.
