Requirements summary pending final verification. This page shows the typical provincial pattern for departments like this one. Always confirm against the official posting linked below.
Thompson Fire and Emergency Services is an integrated fire and EMS service for the City of Thompson in northern Manitoba.
The provincial pattern
Thompson has posted firefighter-paramedic positions that pair NFPA 1001 certification with a licensed Primary Care Paramedic requirement. Confirm the current competition on the official careers page.
Departments matching this pattern usually hire under Model C: paramedic-first. A paramedic licence is the core requirement, with fire certifications stacked on top or trained after hire.
Thompson Fire and Emergency Services has not published requirements confirming this, so treat it as the pattern for the province and not as a fact about this department.
