All the medics in Beacon are paid, and at this time they have either 3 or 4.

It's sad this forum has came down to have to censor stuff like that. I understand you own the site Seth, but if you keep censoring peoples posts, people will move elsewhere. We have very good discussions on here, and yes some get controversial, but it needs to be able to be discussed without Administrator intervention...

Looks really nice, the NHL has been short changed on newcars though so it's nice to see the M8's

I agree completely, there have been so many other discussions on this very same topic. If things are that slow around here, where people have to post slandering material aimed at firing up other ff's or any members who may be part of the tax base, then there's a real problem. I'm sure the fine management of this board doesn't want legal problems, because the way this stands now this is grounds for a case of defamation of character. Just my two cents..

Had Verizon for just over a year now, couldn't be happier.

Rest In Peace Sir.

Change is never easy, no matter who it's with or what it's about. However we must not knock heads with TransCare. Contracts come and go, I realize that, it's the nature of the business. Look at Millbrook in Dutchess County, they switched from Alamo EMS to TransCare after utilizing Alamo since the inception of ALS Service. Do I believe the fact that TransCare has an anti-union site up? I don't think it's professional at all, but obviously the company is worried that they won't hold as much power if the union went through. TransCare is definitley growing in the whole Tri-State area. They have the entire County of Putnam, they gained exponentially in Dutchess in 2009, taking on Beacon, Beekman, Castle Point, Fairview, East Clinton, Hyde Park, Millbrook, Pawling, Poughkeepsie, Pleasant Valley and Union Vale. Also a growing presence in Ulster County as well. The next couple weeks will definitely be interesting... Two medics for that city. I don't know about that one.

I did on many occasions, worked out great. Yankees-E.153rd Street is now a regular stop on Local trains from Croton-Harmon.

Good job to the Dutchess County Department Of Emergency Response, the 911 dispatchers, and all the numerous police agencies that were on the scene. Glad everything worked out and no one was hurt.

Apparently it was a syncopal episode

Its done. The old alamo contract areas for now are being dispatched with an Alamo tone followed by a TransCare tone right after it. Based on what I've heard, there are 4 medics at the Wappingers substation. Will be cool too see how it all plays out!

Speedy Recovery to the driver & patient! Apparently a HV Medics ambulance found the accident. Good job to all involved!
