Reach And Treat Team / REMS Alternate

HR Contact: Shelby Vorwald 

Position Type: Seasonal 

Starting Pay Rate: $600 minimum per day ($700/day total with bonus) while on fire assignment. Separate hourly training wage 

Training wage: $15/hr  

Station Project wage: $23/hr 

Supervisor: Koeby Bennet and Kat Dougherty 

Job Description: 

A Reach and Treat (RAT) Team is a highly skilled team of 2 members that are trained in wildland firefighting, emergency medicine, and low angle rope rescue. As a two-person team, you will be expected to be proficient at treating, packing, and evacuating a patient in technical low-angle terrain. You will also be able to access patients in high-angle terrain and stabilize them until a larger team arrives. High-angle rescue is neither safe nor prudent for a 2-person team. The RAT team will come equipped with a full complement of ALS medical gear, appropriate patient packaging, and a UTV with dedicated patient transport. This team will be expected to deploy on wildland fire assignments. The fire season can run from June-October. Deployments typically last from 5-30 days, with a 2-3 day R&R period between assignments.  

Before the start of fire season, RAT team members will be expected to travel to Bend, OR for a 4-week pre-season training. During this training, members will become certified as rope rescue technicians, vehicle extrication technicians, and go through extensive in-house training with the current REMS teams. RAT team members will be trained as “alternates” for the REMS team, and will be expected to replace a REMS team member as needed. The pre-season training will consist of 40 hrs/wk and be paid at a training wage. 

After this month of pre-season training, RAT team members are allowed to return to their home residence where they will become eligible for fire deployments. Deployments may come in the form of RAT calls, single resource, UTV teams, ambulance, medical base, or REMS fill-ins. RAT team members will be given the ability to work any of the deployments offered to them. While RAT team members are not held to the 3hr callback time of a REMS team, RAT team members are expected to accept any RAT or REM roll offered to them. Refusal of more than one roll without prior notification to Management will lead to disciplinary action up to and including termination from the Rescue Program and refunding Adventure Medics for your certification classes.
