HALL AMBULANCE

[CodeBru1984]

Good job today with the incident Hall ambulance.

I missed it... I was on an IFT LDT to Beverly Hills.

 

[NPO]

I was there. It was more hype than incident. Us and KCDF responded with appropriate resources for what was reported.

However what was reported vs what was happening was different t.

Details! LOL

It's all on the EMS world article. Initial report was 300 patients. In the end 30 were decontaminated. Also the last time pesticides were used in the area was 3 hours prior to the first report, and it was by a tractor not an airplane. There was also reports of running nosebleeds and vomiting. One guy vomited, and 2 vomited when they saw his vomit. That was the extent.

I seriously hope you're joking by asking that question....

Hall covers pretty much the whole county. You can work a station far east by Kramer junction in boron. South in the mountains of frazier park. Far west in taft. South east in Rosemond. Etc. We have 15 stations I believe

All depends what kind of calls and how busy you want to be.

But you're also forgetting the other two lesser known companies... Delano and Liberty which cover Delano/McFarland, and the areas around Lake Isabella.

 

[TRSpeed]

No I didn't forget them lol

 

[wtferick]

No seriously. Haha what's the best location to work at... Cal city.. Tehachapi.. Etc lol

 

[CodeBru1984]

Well if and when you get hired on at Hall, you'll have to do a mandatory FTO process and then at a minimum 90 days of in the metro Bakersfield area prior to being allowed to bid into outlying stations. I personally like Wasco.

I follow some who work at cal city. How is it working there?

I wouldn't know, as I work in either metro Bakersfield, or Wasco.

Depends on where/how you want to work. Some prefer Metro, some prefer Boron, which I believe runs 100 calls per year. That station is subsidized by a CA Healthcare District, or something like that. I like Frazier Park because I like the wilderness and mountains.

There are no "good" (wealthy and heathy) cities outside of Bakersfield. All of the outlying towns are small and have high levels of poverty, probably because of farm labor. Tehachipi would probably be the exception to that.

Again, depends who you talk to.

I probably wouldn't bid that station. The guy you follow loves that station. But I've heard of too many problems with CalCity Fire, and that's not just an objective observation. They have gone head to head with County EMS.

That's fine, even Kern county hospitals forget Ridgecrest is actually in Kern county.
But what they said, go work for Hall. There's no nice part of Kern county, but it's all a fun place to work.

 

[CALEMT]

So guys which part of kern county is the best place to work at ?

Oildale!

 

[Mufasa556]

You haven't lived until you've spent time in Oildale!

 

[LACoGurneyjockey]

You haven't lived until you've spent time in Trona!

Fixed that for you
