Well, it is a little surprising. But it's a great step forward you're taking. Not to mention it's a wonderful service to others. Congrats. As for your OCD, you'll be handling every patient with gloves. My suggestion if you're freaked by germs is to tell your co-workers that. You can wear a mask and gloves....most ambulance people do wear a surgical mask if they're having a cold etc so it won't look too strange. But don't worry, everything's very clean inside an ambulance, only during exposure to patients will you probably feel a bit freaked out. Gloves n mask....and all the surgical spirit you could ask to wash your hands in between patients.
Good luck.

wow, bravo for you. I have the same, and its BAD, and no way would I do it.

Be proud. =]
