Not the best pic but here's the brand new ALS 301(Micom ID) 3004 (hospital ID) 2016 Chevy Crew cab (unknown who did the cap) at Englewood hospital ER

Here's another shot of the new unit

Now that's a field comm thanks for sharing Seth 

I'm told the unit went into service on Monday.
 

 

 

Just caused me to remember the blue Hess and Eisenhardt Cadillacs when I first started with OVAC.

 
 

 

Tarrytown PD has placed this 2016 Chevrolet Tahoe SSV into service as Car 60, which is the patrol supervisor. It features a new graphics scheme, which is kind of familiar if you look at the photo below this one.
 

 

Where are the Field Comm Units located around the City?

That sounds like it could be a cool division to work in.

Who staffs the Field Com Units? Fire Alarm Dispatchers?

National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week 2016 will be, April 10-16. I hope that all Telecommunicators/Dispatchers get the recognition that they deserve during this time. We often get overlooked or forgotten about. Remember, we are the FIRST 1st Responders. 

Actually it is four different departments.  City of Rye Fire Department is contracted to cover District 3 of the Harrison Fire district.

While on vacation in Punta Gorda Florida, I went to a festival where local Police were doing a K9 demonstration.

On July 14, 2012 Orange County held a Full-Scale Exercise to test their Hazard Specific Annex (2011 ed) for Transportation Accidents (Hudson River) contained in their CEMP.  This Full-Scale Exercise was based upon a very challenging boating accident on the Hudson River involving multiple patients requiring search, extrication, and land-based rescue. (SEE LINK) Based upon lessons learned from that exercise and several significant incidents involving multiple jurisdictions on the Hudson River, Orange County improved their Hazard Specific Annex in their CEMP to provide responders with guidance for Transportation Accidents on the Hudson River.  Agencies from Albany to Westchester with  jurisdiction on the Hudson River were invited to observe the exercise and subsequently the final copy of the plan was distributed to hopefully help stimulate improvement of emergency response on the Hudson River.
This comprehensive plan addresses many issues and operational challenges that frequently present with incidents on the Hudson River.  Orange County has designated (with USCG Approval) Marine Channel 81A for interoperability with all units operating on the Hudson River.  Motorola APX Dual Band VHF/UHF radios were purchased and issued to every agency with jurisdiction on the Hudson River and programmed with Marine Channels for Interoperability.
It would be beneficial if there was a Hudson River Emergency Response Consortium spearheaded by NY DHSES and the USCG...

In 2004, we attempted a run survey of departments in Westchester for 2003.

Should we try to do a run survey for 2015?

Fellow member and friend,
 
Happy Easter to you and your family! May this special day be blessed with joy and happiness. We hope the Easter Bunny brought you tons of chocolates!
