  3. Just be Happy I am wearing Pants for this Call! No Less something in my pockets, The only extra thing I carry is my own scope with a pouch that holds small spo2 and 2 pairs of gloves. Other then that I work out of my bag, I even go as far as refusing to work out of my cabinets unless I really need it. Now if you will excuse me I need to go back and Earn Money Sleeping!

  14. TMac- I am sleep Deprived, All Work No Sleep! I dont know what argument I am making anymore, but I do want to see a better EMS System NO MORE Half A** EMS. It is bad enough that if I call for an Ambulance at my house and hear it go M/A I have to drag my self across the Flood Gate to get an ambulance.
  15. Do you want an application CEMS You seem to be bashing this one agency. Hate to say it this is not the only agency with problems, As your agency has Paid people and go M/A as well. You just took your EMT Test this week so share stop spending all your time behind the computer and come be that EMT or that DRIVER.
  16. Leave the ambulance on the outside of the scene, (Stretchers are easy to go over the 5inch hose, ambluance on the other hand NOT so much) If your department has or can get access to a Rehab unit try to get that as close to the fire scene as possible, REHAB Doesnt work if you have to walk a distance to it. and leave it there until the last fire truck leaves the scene. If your ambulance has to transport and you are awaiting a second ambulance to the scene for the standby you at least still have the REHAB unit to allow you to be able treat another victim and or rehab your Firefighters.
  17. I would Love to know how it works myself, more so on the PD side and we get alot of 911 transfers from NYPD for other agencys in Westchester to Rockland County to Putnam County to as far as Bufflo. However I love when the call and ask Westchester County do you patrol this another County. (Will someone buy them a map of NY please)
  18. Or Firefighters who could never make it through the ranks to become a chief!

  20. Thats how Putnam County Rolls on the WEST Side! not to get off topic!
  21. SORRY for the DELAY I was in the middle of looking for a THIRD Job to pay my bills! I think everyone on Welfare needs to neuter and spayed before collecting anything. JUST SAYING!
  22. AHH 1 more appratus won't hurt to much!
  23. Care 1 has been used M/A for Philipstown and They do have a contracted EMT in Garrison VAC Mon - Fri 0600-1600hrs, Putnam works on Muliti Agency Tone Out for M/A response, to my knowledge it comes down to who every is able to get a crew first takes the call. 9 times our of 10 calls are handled with the paid staff EMT/Driver and the Medic. Unless it is a second hit and no 2nd personal in the building, or an ALPHA level call and no medic dispatched. If it comes down to M/A Philipstown EMT will assist and offer to ride the call in with the other responding agency. Garrison District line is the Bridge at Dicks Castle rd on rt 9d which is less than a mile from foodtown. and BVAC Starts at the Tunnel on the other side of RT9d. Philipstown does cover a large area, so the response can be some time for say Garrison to respond from their HQ to the Northern End of Philipstown which happens to be right down the road from CARE 1 HQ.
