it seems like they're just offering the rebate to push drilling in alaska national wildlife reserve thinking nobody will complain because they get 100 dollars.

just further supporting the theory that stupid should hurt.

Starting out generally doing transports at transcare or westchester ems or another company that does transports, and then working your way into 911. Since the summers right around the corner summercamps pay emts pretty well to hand out bandaids.

I think they're just trying to raise funds right now, next to that sign they've got the the funddrive signs with a goal of 4 million that's barely been started.

Half of a normal class.

There was a new york times article about a year ago, I'll try to find the article and link it, that did sort of the same piece about EMS in Long Island, It went into detail about 45 minute waits for an ambulance to get to the scene, it cited a time that an ambulance just never showed up, and interviewed several police officers who said that on multiple occasions they got tired of waiting for an ambulance for patients who needed to get to the hospital and put patients in the back of cop cars and rushed them to the hospital. Something really needs to be done about the volunteer emergency services in the whole area, not to say that there aren't any good departments or volunteers there, but the system is not working.

I go to Hobart and William Smith colleges, there in the process of developing an emt class for credit. I believe the way there going to do it is by treating it as an elective and giving a half credit for the class.
