I would go for that lol

I also like the idea Senior Verified member Non Verified Member, Verified Member, Junior Verified Member, and Senior Verfied Member As Non verified and verified is determind on if they fill out there info. and Jr and Sr Verified member can be determined by number of post, topic starters, points, activity to the site. Just a few ideas to throw out there I believe it will do good for the site something to keep the active member to look foward to

YOU are miss lead notting beats the GREEN!!!!

Yes this site has help me on training class, idea for the ems and fire service and updates on local news that you dont always here on the news.

I used to work for empire myself and I have worked a 36 straight hour tour and was held on overtime at points which lead 40 hours not including overtime i have picked up during the week i have done that for about 2 months pirror leavingthe company on other reasons

I AGREE with you seth I know personally I used to work a 36 hours straight tour and held overtime for a couple of hours and I felt so tired that I refused to drive but it does a big wear and tare on you body and drains you out of EMS. I have been burnt out 3-4 time in the pass 3 years from riding ems calls and getting tired fast

Good Luck with the rehab Unit and I have to say ALSFirefighter Rehab class is very intresting and bring out a lot of special points that we all tend to over look and new idea. Tommy has help myself and the other members of Cortlandt VAC what Rehab is all about and the right tools and equipment need to get the job done. GOOD LUCK!!! THINK REHAB!!!

My deepest sympathies to Matthew's family, fiance Jennifer and his friends and family of Empire along with Carmel FD toand loved ones. Traggic Accident and he will be truly missed, My condolences to the Empire State Ambulance and Carmel VFD family on the loss of truly dedicated and professional member of the fire and EMS services. (I enjoyed working with you at Empire) RIP BROTHER on behalf of Cortlandt Community Volunteer Ambulance Corp and Verplanck Fire Department

AS I said before SAD day with the outcome. As the Info I recived from previous Co workers and friends was not turning out as good news. I work with him last year before I left the company, He was always full of life and took is job serious. It is so sad that this has happen. MY prayers and condolences to his family and to JEN and the Friends of Empire and Carmel MAY HE R.I.P

I just hear from a friend about the Accident and it does not look to good Hope he can pull through, I know the Victim I used to work with him when I was at Empire. God Bless him and his family!!
