Plaquemines Parish (LA) careers

Seven EMS districts cover Plaquemines Parish, running the length of the delta from Belle Chasse at the top, through Port Sulphur and Buras, to Boothville-Venice at the mouth of the Mississippi, with East Pointe-A-La-Hache, Lake Hermitage, and Woodlawn covering the remainder of the parish. The parish government runs the ambulance service itself, with a stated dedication to prehospital emergency care for residents and visitors, so paramedics and EMTs there are public employees rather than contractor staff. For medics comparing employers, that's the distinction worth knowing: these stations answer to parish government.
