    Pray for a fast recovery...on the other hand I heard Beekman FD and Transcare did an outstanding job on scene. Last I heard he has a massive head injury with three skull fractures and two bleeds. Still at SFH in Pok. Only 3 days on the job...what a shame! If anyone else has info please share.

    Beacon, Fishkill to save on ambulance service charges

    By Michael Woyton • Poughkeepsie Journal • January 9, 2009

    The City of Beacon is using the Beacon Volunteer Ambulance Corps to cover the municipality at no cost to the city.

    The Town of Fishkill reached an agreement with Mobile Life Support Service Inc., of New Windsor, to provide advanced life support services to the area covered by the Rombout Fire District - which is about half of the town - for $48,200 annually.

    Ok I will give a quick run down of what is happening on the NDP side. I have been reading the posts over the last couple of days and I have to say I’m not shocked by any means. People will come up with all kinds of rumors and statements, which most of them are not true and some of them are true.

    At the 11th hour Health-Quest (HQ) changed the contract on Ed and Rob. From the start our owners stated they would not give up their company and have it run by HQ (or any other company). I think it is fair to say HQ wanted no part of running an ambulance business and now they do. From the meetings I have attended and the employees I have spoken to, they were glad the merger was going through. Of course you will have some employees who did not like the merger, which is 100% fair and understandable. Ed and Rob poured a lot of time into this merger and for Health Quest to back out at the last minute I believe is very unfair…but business will be business. Till this day NDP will stay NDP and Alamo will stay Alamo. For one I will say I think it is a mistake, Alamo has a great group of Managers, Supervisors, Medics and EMT’s. I know I am upset it is not going through. Time will only tell what will happen next. I wish the best for the Alamo staff and look forward to working with them in the future as we have been in the past.

    I have worked for NDP EMS over the last 4 years and I only can tell you that Ed and Rob are very committed to their company and employees. It is a pleasure to work with them and for them. Instead of making senseless comments on a web site why don’t you call and ask your questions. We are OPEN 24/7 now and forever.

    Thanks,

    From what I was told, (Empire) Hudson Valley Paramedics bought the C.O.N. for orange county from Regional EMS, and Regional is pulling out of Orange and moving their operations solely to Rockland. Now as for a merger, I highly doubt it.

    Ok I would agree with you on that but Empire already holds a CON for Orange Co. so why would a company that already holds a license for Orange Co. write a check for $250K-$300K for a license they already hold?

    If this is true please someone explain that logic.

    Was Regional losing money or just time to regroup and evaluate business needs?

    If I remember correctly, NDP changed its name from Northern Dutchess Paramedics because they expanded out of just serving northern dutchess. After that the name didn't really fit anymore...

    Very true Northern Dutchess Paramedics name is NDP EMS due to the expanded area of coverage, i.e. - Columbia County. If you have noticed alot of agencies do not put Paramedic on thier trucks any more...MLSS trucks use to read "PARAMEDIC UNIT". Now most of them read Mobile Life Support Services.

    In this photo I notice the typical NYPD logo is not on the front fender, can anyone tell me what logo that is? Also on the upper Manhattan truck I notice that on the hood it reads "HAR2LEM" instead of "POLICE". Is this the only truck that has a different decal on the hood? Thanks for your help, trying to build a diecast NYPD ESU truck, just have to pick the decals and which truck number to put on it.
