Abstract

This brief summarizes 2025 supply, demand, and projection data for Indiana’s emergency medical technicians (EMTs) and paramedics based on Lightcast labor market estimates. Indiana has an estimated 2,280 actively practicing EMTs and 3,709 paramedics. Projected job growth for both professions from 2025 to 2035 is minimal and remains well below national averages, with EMT employment expected to grow by 0.2% and paramedic employment by 5.1%. Job openings are projected to decline for both professions, with paramedic openings estimated to fall by 16.3% and EMT openings by 10%, reflecting reduced growth and replacement needs. These trends highlight anticipated contraction in EMS labor demand across the coming decade.
