As an EMT working in a large city with a high violent crime rate, I completely understand the desire for armor. Employers shouldn't be asking EMS providers to put themselves in harm's way, then denying them the PPE needed for responders to provide care effectively and safely.

Our medical professionals out there in the field need to be protected just as much as any Policeman or woman. They need the protection to help others and can’t do that with their lives in danger.

Good luck to you. So sorry that this is becoming necessary but if it saves one life, it's worth it!
