Yes, the smurf company has blue trucks, equipment and gear, last I knew air packs too.

My dept. was responding to an mva today going to Rt 9D & I 84 when my rescue passed me there was a car five feet from the tail board. I caught up to it to get the tag a minute later my rescue was passing a pick up with a trailer that pulled over, as the rescue passed the pick up began to move back into traffic and the idiot in the car almost caused a multi car accident because they just missed by inches rear ending the trailer. So I called it in to 911....not that they were caught or anything. (Not being prejudice but it was a female driver)

And stop worrying about teaching people to parallel park! Get them to learn how to use a vehicle for something other than a living or dinning room. Turn the music down or you will be deaf by 25

http://www.poughkeepsiejournal.com/apps/pb...EWS01/705180334 Friday, May 18, 2007 Wappinger looks at ambulance guidelines Non-contracted services would be prohibited from responding By Michael Woyton Poughkeepsie Journal WAPPINGERS FALLS - The Town of Wappinger wants to make sure its residents get what they are paying for with ambulance service. "Our residents are paying close to $400,000 a year for ambulance service," Supervisor Joseph Ruggiero said. "It demands an orderly system." The town has drafted a law that will prevent ambulance services not contracted by the municipality from attending to patients unless they are dispatched through the county 911 system. Contract signed in 2005 In 2005, the town signed a five-year, $395,000 contract with TransCare Hudson Valley to provide two ambulances and crews for advanced life support and one ambulance for basic life support. The Brooklyn-based company serves communities in New York City, the Hudson Valley and Long Island. The proposed legislation grew out of an incident when a town restaurant employee directly contacted an ambulance service for an injured party instead of dialing 911. At the same time, 911 was called by another person, and an ambulance from TransCare was dispatched to the scene. The TransCare ambulance arrived first, but the ambulance from Mobile Life Support Services that had been called directly disputed who was responsible for taking care of the patient. Councilman William Beale, an emergency medical technician, said Mobile Life should have relayed the direct call to 911. "When I receive calls on our seven-digit phone number, I immediately turn it over to the proper 911 center," he said. Ruggiero said the proposed law will assure the patient receives the proper level of care and provide data about the call, including response times. There also could be a financial consideration in using the town's ambulance, he said. Not everybody has insurance for ambulance service. The town created an ambulance district and covers any shortfall after TransCare bills the patient's insurance. "We want people to not have to make a decision to call an ambulance," Ruggiero said. "When our people go to sleep at night, they know that an ambulance will be there if they need it." The board will continue discussing the law at future meetings.

shows you just how quickly a car becomes a fireball after striking an object, 1 second!

Using a monopod is also an option and it is better than carrying a bulky tripod.

Sorry I was wrong, Steve is 43. Good thing no lives were lost over that. I hear Jeff dispatching for the village of Wappinger's sometimes Who doesn't miss ol chubby cheeks

Just remember to check all firefighters pockets before they leave. LoL

FYI - Dutchess County 14-1 is the dispatch supervisor, not County Car 1 County car 1 is known like the other county officials, County Car 1, 2, 3, 4 ---------------------------------------- Steve Tuttle is not 14-43 sorry, can't recall his number right now...Yes this is the one who does hot air balloons --------------------------------------- Town of Poughkeepsie also uses car 1, 2, 3, etc. City of Poughkeepsie also uses the car number 1, 2, 3, etc. Village of Fishkill has a state police ID, like 7K227 they are primarily dispatched by the state police troop K but can also be dispatched by the town if a call goes to their center. the units using 1Kxx are from the Claverack barracks in Columbia County

that is the current system, they are going to use the agencys ID's with bls units having a unique ID Poughkeepsie uses Engine 1, Ladder 1, Rescue 1, car 1, car 2, ect when they are only dealing with jobs with City 911.

Thanks for the clarification WCDES636 Some ground medics are trained to do RSI
