Nursing student wanting to pursue paramedic after school

not sure if this is the best place to ask this but i’m a BSN student who graduates in 11 months and i’m interested in getting my paramedic certification afterwards. I live in Indiana. I’ve always been interested in working on an ambulance out in the field and it’s something I think about often. Is it possible to do both/work both jobs? thanks in advance :)

I know that Florida allows nurses to challenge the medic exam providing that they hold an EMT certification
