What do Logistic Technicians do?

Logistic Technicians are highly specialized professionals who ensure that ambulances, equipment, and specialized vehicles are ready to help patients in their time of need. They sanitize the ambulances to ensure the health and safety of the patients, the public, and the paramedics.
When people suffer medical emergencies, they depend on highly skilled Paramedics to show up fully equipped and ready. Logistic Technicians are the vital professionals who make sure our Paramedics are able to show up with the right equipment for the job.
