Well, here's how we do things in my area. I live in Northern Wyoming. Our ambulance area is frontier/rural. The closest Trauma center is 90 minutes away. We don't have paramedics at all on my service. We have 3 rigs. We run a 3 man crew, with at least one EMT-I. Our crew has 28 members, 8 of which just finished EMT-B class. Of the remaining 20, we have 7 EMT-I's.
It's not perfect, but it's what we have to work with and we do our best.
