Stirring the pot?

Look on the websites, instead of running down every EMS agency and creating a thread about employment opportunties.

2 Dedicated ALS units. There are others available incase their is a 3rd opr even 4th call. So Yes 2 dedicated units and additional units to support is adequate.

Lets face it. It was not that serious of a accident. Worst injury was a concusion. Nobody stayed over night in the hospital and there was not heavy entrapment.

Never said the units worked sloppy or poor. Never said it was HANDLED poorly. Obviously went well.

Look at the white vehicle in the picture.... Door removal? heavy entrapment? Not one car appears to have its roof removed. The white Honda has a door pryed back. With all of the apparatus their how could you not close the road down? A Ambulance going ALS to SFH? Is that unheard of? The Simple fact of mechanism makes it ALS, does not mean serious. LOL State Police? So what they said it was serious, is it true? Come On People.

Doesn't look as horrendous as everyone made it out to be. Infact there were no serious injuries. Great job in blowing this out of proportion. Everyone was discharged.

I am willing to travel the TSP.

There was so muuch screaming and yelling on the radio. Kind of comical

Pt should never wait at a LZ for a helicopter.

Getting it out before 3rd dispatch is another thing.

What was this video made with?

Nicely done and good music

Whats the big dinner for? somebody retiring?

I know Putnam is not a real busy county, but is it this slow?

Anyones XYZ dept in columbia county have a heavy rescue cow? Any other thoughts on cc emergency services?

Thats what I thought. I was reading and saw 706 Stoneleigh. Putnam Hosp right around there?

City of Hudson has nice fire apparatus.

will someone do the same for all of the other counties that have a forum?

Congrats to all who tested out well.

Well then the person needs to grow some.... and stand up for yourselves then

Its up to you to make sure you are properly rested if you are working a overnight. YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOURSELF! If you can't handle a overnight DONT WORK. There is no way around it. YOU put peoples lives at risk, And why do we need a thread on everything to pick at every little piece?

Ditto

Terrible News, prayers to all involved. Hopefully stupidity did not cause this.
