My first call as an EMT student was a single vehicle rollover with one ped doa and one ped trauma alert, so needless to say I had to hit the ground running.

Congrats and welcome, and you are partially correct in reference to Florida's duty to act, if it is obvious to a reasonable person that you are a trained professional i.e. you have decalled the crap outta your pov it can create a duty to act even if you are off duty/unemployed. As for the lack of Volunteer positions you'd be surprised even in South Florida alot of larger agencies have at least some volunteers. Never stop learning, and never forget why we do what we do.
