This company is so in over their heads it's pathetic. wait and see when an ambulance or flycar breaks down on the way to a 911 call. Not to mention the quality of providers that will end up killing a patient or two.Only a matter of time.

EMStar thinks theyre taking over the putnam contract with their whopping 5 ambulances that are always out of service lol

Just did the application online for philly medic can anyone comment on the hiring process what they ask and what's required and then post hire what they put you through . Also any info on Philly ems operations 12 vs 8 hr shifts where the busier stations located? Etc I'll take any and all information on the Philly FD ems

Thanks so much! I know they're one of the busiest systems in the country. I understand they're pretty well paid as well though. Do they run 12 hr shifts or 8? Is there an academy like FDNY EMS when you're hired ? Is the pre hire testing similar just want to know what I'm heading into

Was at work driving on van Wyck south and Nassau expressway PD ESU highway had everything closed off. Asked an officer he said there's an ambulance with MOS on board en route to Jamaica. Sitting dead stopped in traffic on Nass ex saw a convoy of a dozen PD ESU etc surrounding a Fdny bus flying towards Jamaica. My guess MOS shot in far rockaway or serious MVA they were coming from far rockaway so it was definitely there. Can anyone confirm?

Another car involved? How'd it go down were they responding to a call and another car didn't yield?

Is it true the former owner of HVP / Care 1 arik Erik aron not sure his name just that he's an accountant owns Em star in PA so he bought out his own company? I know he owns emergency ambulance in LI is it also true he owns senior care and Richmond county ambulance

The emergencies for hotels offices etc is done through transcare dba fastcare mostly in midtown manhattan they turn out from Roosevelt hosp

so back to my original question.....the original owner of hvp and emergency ambulance was also the owner of care 1 and now emstar?

oh yes the mainstream media is so accurate with reporting everything....just like in the treyvon martin case when they altered the 911 conversation of George Zimmerman , ain't that something

points are all good and well, just a few things you mentioned I'll be brief about -the government forcing the population of this country to buy a product really constitutional? - I'd like for you to show in detail how the economy has improved because I certainly don't see it and neither do millions of unemployed Americans - Bush wasn't the greatest president but he wasn't the worst....funny how liberals always like to blame him though -Where's the "amazing" things Barack Hussein Obama promised us ? -Yea I mention his name because it bothers me that there is a man in the white house as our president named Barack Hussein Obama and what bothers me even more is that it doesn't bother a majority of other people - Do you really think Obamantioncare, if passed (hopefully not) will improve the quality of our current healthcare that we have today?

who are you ? you work citywide because I used to work for them as well

Really $15.75 starting for empress is more then 21-23$ for some privates in the city? hows that union working out? btw In my very humble opinion 911 vs transports its all the same bs it just depends what bs you want to smell the left or the right hand

Here's another article for your reading pleasure Barack Hussein Obama promised to transform America with an ill-defined message of change during his 2008 campaign. As Americans discovered what that change involved, they began to reject it. It was a change to the Left, to liberalism, to socialism. The first sign of rejection was the 2010 election when voters returned power in the House of Representatives to Republicans. Since the 2006 midterm elections that gave the Democratic Party a sweeping victory and elevated Nancy Pelosi as the first woman to become Speaker of the House, Americans have had an opportunity to experience the liberal agenda and they don't like it. They didn’t like the way Obama wasted 2009 on pushing his socialization of one sixth of the nation’s economy with Obamacare, a bill then-Speaker Pelosi told voters that the bill would have to be passed so they “could see what was in it.” Soon enough the Supreme Court will render a decision on its constitutionality and the likely outcome is that it will be struck down. The voters didn’t like Obama’s massive “stimulus” redistribution of their taxes that included a bailout of General Motors and Chrysler that could have been avoided by simply allowing them to go through the normal process of bankruptcy and restructuring. Instead, Obama screwed their creditors, normally the first in line to be compensated for their losses, and gave the auto unions a seat on the auto companies’ boards of directors, erasing the line between management and unions. Recall, too, that the 2006 elections reflected the dissatisfaction of voters with the long years of wars in Afghanistan and, in particular, in Iraq. When the financial crisis hit in 2008, just before the national elections, combined with the unalloyed worship of a completely unknown Illinois Senator, the outcome was the election of Obama. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Now the shame of the failure to address the financial crisis in time-tested and proven ways is Obama’s. He could have cut taxes. Instead he pushed for an end to the Bush tax cuts and talked endlessly about raising taxes on “millionaires and billionaires.” In point of fact, his tax programs were and are aimed at the middle class. He could have cut government spending. Instead he increased it with all manner of phony schemes such as “cash for clunkers.” Since 2009 Obama has added four trillion dollars to the nation’s debt and has presided over the first, historic downgrade of America’s triple-A credit rating. The continuing news of taxpayer losses in his administration’s disastrous “investments” in solar and other “clean energy” firms that continue to fail has added to the clear perception of an ideologically driven agenda that is out of touch with reality. The victory of Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker, barely five months before the forthcoming November elections is yet another reason to celebrate the rejection of Obama and his policies that have given the nation 42 months of an unemployment rate that is unprecedented since the Great Depression. Gov. Walker’s election signals the decline of the union movement and his reforms resulted in tens of thousands of union members choosing to leave the unions in Wisconsin. The realization that unions, in particular the public service unions, have raped the public coffers of states, marks a turning point that will result in reforms that will greatly aid recovery. The millions the union movement poured into the defeat of Gov. Walker are millions that have been diverted from Obama’s reelection. USA Today reported that “The residents of only nine states have returned their economies to the level that existed before the downturn struck at the end of 2007—and most of those states are energy producers.” The nation runs on the energy that the oil, coal, natural gas, and nuclear provide. Obama has waged a war on oil and coal in particular and the public has taken notice of how insane this policy has been. The outcome of the Wisconsin elections has not been lost on the Democratic Party. It will now be in full panic mode and Americans will be subjected to a campaign of lies intended to distract and deceive them. Obama can no longer blame former President Bush for his failures, cannot blame events in Europe, and cannot blame Mother Nature. He has only himself to blame. Voters from the Left to the Right know this. Except for the hardcore liberal base and the mainstream media, the rest are ready to reject Obama. http://www.conservativecrusader.com/articles/obama-forced-a-change-nobody-wanted#.T9VIVV_c5WA.facebook

who cares if they're not my words they are the same thoughts as mine and more importantly its TRUTH.... you cant hide or change truth no matter how hard you'd like to

your assumption is that its the "rich" 1% well show me some proof because there's a lot of people I know that are republican right wing supporters of not just walker but the entire right wing idealogy plus unions support that disgusting OWS movement

well since you asked nicely: Back in the early 1900's when robber barons ruled labor unions gave the people a living wage . Then the commies moved into control of the unions . They saw the way to control labor and to also control politics . The rights of labor are now a foot note of unions . It is all about money and political control for those who control unions . It always starts out with the rights of the people and ends in greed for the so called Elitists. The existence of a union in an industry can result in limited choices regarding hiring new employees or even limiting the potential for dismissal of a poorly performing worker. Whenever choices are limited, free enterprise suffers. Legislation has been passed throughout the 20th Century to increase labor rights and privileges, such as the Wagner Act of 1935, and to limit them, such as the Taft-Hartley Act of 1947. Labor unions serve as restrictions on free competition. By limiting the potential pool of employees and dictating wage and salary terms, certain economic factors of employers of unionized workers are fixed, such as eligible employees. Closed shops are situations wherein only union members may be employed. This has several negative effects as those jobs are unavailable to non-union workers and the employer will have a smaller pool of candidates to choose from. This could limit the amount of education and experience that job candidates might possess. While members traditionally enjoy higher wages, that cost must be accounted for somewhere. Whether passed along to the customer as higher prices on goods or services, made up for by hiring fewer workers or limiting the wages of non-union employees, the increased cost of union workers has an effect on a company’s economics. Prohibitive labor cost could also lead companies to seek alternative options to hiring more workers--automation and off-shoring of jobs are possible solutions to increased pay rates. Stating that union agreements generally tend to run for three years, the Library of Economics and Liberty points out that union members might miss opportunities present during boom times of which their non-union co-workers could take advantage. An individual worker could negotiate a wage increase during an annual evaluation while union members must wait out the terms of the agreement. A successful effort to unionize a workplace apparently reduces the market value of affected publicly-traded firms, even if there is no immediate change in their operating performance.Calculations of the effects of a union victory suggest that it produces large negative returns of 10 to 14 percent. The Unions are directly responsible for many of our labor laws, unfortunately, as they succeeded they got too powerful and off track. They now are a parasite on the very companies that give them employment. If the unions don't pull back and try to be an asset to their companies they will surely be the reason that they lose their own support and more importantly their jobs.The labor union will cause a supply curve to shift to the left. The wage rate in that industry will increase while the labor employed will decrease. The labor who lost jobs may be engaged in the industry without union where the supply curve has shifted to the right. The wage rate will be lower, but more labors are employed.The union may call a strike for their own benefits or for political purposes, but it might cause the industry to be palalyzed, like the strike by the train union in France. The effects are very bad for common people. Many say unions have a negative effect as a positive effect on workplace productivity and on the availability of good jobs in America. And more say that unions have a negative than positive impact on the ability of U.S. companies to compete internationally also refer to the website http://donpridemore....t-on-education/ for more reading on how unions have a negative effect on educationhttp://www.ehow.com/...bor-unions.html http://answers.yahoo...21054610AAA0to0 http://answers.yahoo...19184208AA8AYGx shall I continue?

oh please walker had more donations from average everyday folks putting in 10 15 20 dollars keep thinking that the democrat left and union machines are out to help the poor and weak it had a lot more to do with it then you'd like to admit

(continuation of previous thread) so to all the pro union supporters.....what happened in wisconsin with walkers election to all the beloved unions out there? I think the masses are starting to wake up and realize the truth about unions

Just had an interview with a Mr Nodar (very nice , upfront and down to earth guy ) up in fishkill for Care1. I used to work for them under HVP/Reg with Mr Rizzo as chief. Besides different color ambulances, according to Mr Nodar the differences are addition of a new base in yonkers (why?) All medics must be westchester remac as well as HV remac, and the majority of the management is long gone. Besides that can anyone comment on any other changes? Is the owner(s) still the same? Pay rates still the same? Operations? Equipment? etc etc.... basically besides new ambulances and faces what can I expect to be better or worse? I've seen some people mention the company on here saying they worked for care1 previously so any info at all will be greatly appreciated in advance. Oh and hvp/reg website is still up does care1 have a website yet?

How about Empire ambulance Acute care ambulance Lower providence EMS Central Bucks EMS EMStar

Right thats equal to cfr which is lower then an EMT b in both states no ems agencies would hire anyone with Just that (unless you want to ride for a volunteer Ambulance in nj that has no standards) its mostly used for firefighters but any fire agency (ie fdny) would most likely put you Through cfr /emr training again.

Nj requires about 300 extra hours clinical then ny
