In San Bernardino County we can use transport vents for 911 scene calls. Almost all the transporting agencies except for AMR have them. (County Fire, Desert, MBA)

Hey does anybody have any information about the ALS services in PA? I'm particularly interested in the Scranton area and can't find any real useful information. What service provides ALS in that area and do they only utilize the bare minimum medication list that is required to be considered ALS...

Go figure. So do you work at HCEC or have you just had experiences with them?

Ok nice, yea in California it's so restricitve and whenever you make base you can no longer do anything without contacting base first. I'm kind of surprised that Ketamine is a consult order. Why is that?

Oh I believe it. I'm applying to medical schools right now so I'm trying to figure out whether or not I want to work in california for about a year before moving on to med school or get experience in an aggressive 911 system somewhere else before I matriculate.

Ok makes sense. I thought they already had pericardiocentesis? So when you call for a medical consult is it like calling a base hospital where you can only do what they say and can not even perform any standing orders without base consult? Or do you just call to ask for a certain drug or...

I haven't heard much about Williamson county.. Can you explain what makes it a good service?

Cool thanks for the info! Is there a minimum amount of time required to progress to IC or is it just that it takes awhile to gain the experience needed to be able to function competently at that level? I've read both of their protocols on the PPP app and that is what got me interested and...

Those are from 2006

Ok cool thank you for the detailed description of the services! In your opinion what services are the most aggressive/progressive with the best pay/working conditions?

Does anyone know where I can find Cypress Creek EMS' protocols? I couldn't find anything on their website... Thanks

I'm in San Bernardino Ca for medic school, might be a little premature too move lol I haven't heard much about Galeveston, can you tell me more about your service? I'm looking for an aggressive service/system with multiple treatment options and a large pharmacological toolbox. I can't stand...

I've noticed that Clark County in Nevada carries Solu-Cortef but it is not in their allergic reaction or respiratory protocols. Are they not allowed to give it for respiratory issues/allergic reactions? Can anyone from Vegas way in on this?

Awesome thanks!

Cool thank you! Is the area that they cover pretty rural or not so much? How is it living there? Cost of living, Safety, recreation activities? Also does anyone know how they would compare to MCHD or Cypress Creek EMS?

Is there a minimum amount of posts you have to post before getting to PM? I didn't see that option but I'm kinda new to this lol

I know the High Desert units have vents, I wonder if these are the only ones though.

Does anyone here work for Count as an AO? If so how do you like it? Thinking about transferring there from AMR after medic school and am trying to get a feel for what it would be like working for county. I've heard that all their rigs have vents, is this true? Is there a possibilty to negotiate...

Hey all, I was wondering if anyone could give me any information on what it is like working for HCEC? Station quality, call volume, pay, overall opinions of the place etc. How long does it take to promote up to in charge if you are already a medic?
