The "old" 2371 has now be renumbered to be 2372. Exactly.

Very nice rig. Congrats on the new delivery!

I am not positive....it will be this weekend for sure I imagine. Definitely a good idea and will most likely end up saving a few bucks.

Some pictures I got of PFD's new Chiefs car today. Picture were taken with my iPhone.

Nice

Thanks for posting, great shots. Definitely some heavy fire loads this year in that neck of the woods.

Nice shots. Thanks!

It is not an urban example but up here in St. Lawrence County often times for EMS runs, the rescue squad and FD first responders are dispatched. If the first responders get on scene first and their is no need for rescue, they can cancel the squad.

No disrespect taken. I completely agree with you that we are all fighting for the same cause and helping each other out is a must. It just seems that in other counties in the state, I hear EMS agencies re-tone for their own man power to go to the scene for lifting assistance. If this is not filled then an fd is requested for lifting assistance. I understand doing whatever it takes to get the patient the care they need just seems that rather than just skipping over your remaining membership that could help assist and calling for another agency/department might be unnecessary. If you can not fill the need then of course call an outside agency.

I don't personally care who does the lift assist. I have done lift assists as both an EMS and FD provider. What I am curious about is why EMS agencies request FD's for lifting assistance without first retoning their own agency/department. Why? Is it possible that agencies do not have 1 or 2 extra hands not already on the call?

I may be wrong but gators are placed around the county at different FD's...this is similar to what you are saying.

Hiring? I will go anywhere...

Thanks a lot!

Does anyone have contact information that they can give me? I am trying to apply for a job... I found an online application on hvmedics.com... Is this what I need? Any help is greatly appreciated. Stay safe, Madison
