Real question is why work for amr in the Los Angeles area?

Any updates on this? I remember seeing in article about it but didn't have anything more then the intent to purchase

Amr = almost made rent

It will be interesting to see what happens with Monrovia and the children's hospital contracts. I bet care will make a bid for Monrovia and who knows for chla.

Also as a follow-up I heard that the Imperial Valley has been hard for many ambulance companies in the past due to many migrant workers not having insurance or medi-cal which pays basically nothing for transports. It is incredibly sad to see one of the most historic ambulance companies in the...
