They actually didn’t do that plus a lot of us just got a significant raise on top of the OT/DT.

From what I was told it was going to become the Stanford spare.

Stanford LifeFlight got their 5 bladed H145 delivered in July. It’s just getting interior work and paint put on right now.

Everything I have found for Pennsylvania has required an agency affiliation "For all out of state applicants for EMS Certification By Endorsement are required to submit Proof of Affiliation with a PA licensed EMS agency from current state of certification. Incomplete applications will not be...

From the outside it sounds like a good plan. Send out the same 4 nurses, 4 medics, 4 pilots, and 2 mechanics who all are trained on how to open a new base and deal with a lot of the initial headaches instead of having it fall on people who have never done it before.

Yeah, ISR are In Service Rates. The greenfield term is something the company started using a couple of years ago. A greenfield base is a new base of operations. We have a dedicated greenfield team where they will go out, open up the base, start operations, and start building contacts all while...

That is a hope along with having more aircraft to replace aircraft with a low ISR and allowing for more spare aircraft. We are also opening more greenfield bases in the near future.

No where near 35 bases were closed. It was a total of 17. Only 1 base in AZ was closed, Gila Bend. All of the bases that were shut down have already been shut down.

My guess would be that the fire departments are stuck with the patients until that ambulance finally arrives at the scene. The hospital has absolutely no idea how long a 911 call has been pending as their job doesn't really start until the patient arrives on property. Edit: I will add that this...

1. United States of America 2. No 3. Take a 4x4 piece of gauze to hold the vial and protect yourself. Snap the ampule. Draw up with filter straw. 4. It’s cheap. It’s easy to find. It’s effective. 5. Never used.

Both.

Riverside County: no clue on starting pay for EMTs anymore. 911 calls are primarily handled by ALS units. Whoever is first on scene is in charge of patient care. If that is fire then they are supposed to hand over all patient care to the transporting medic as soon as reasonably possible. BLS...

AHA as more agencies/states/counties accept their certs.

Nope. I also haven’t worked with anyone that I know of who has a good luck charm. I have things that I don’t work without but they are not good luck charms.

We are getting a 3% performance based raise and then at the end of each quarter the company is going to give us the difference between our 3% and the current inflation level.

Well that’s one way of transitioning from volleys to fully paid staff. Not saying that’s a bad thing…

That’s what I figured was happening when our clinical director came to pick it all up. Sounds like they are also making more of our employees get their Kern license so they can cover any open shifts.

You guys just took the spare Zoll X series and Hamilton T1 from my base

Hall ambulance has put an end to their HEMS program. The helicopter is probably heading to paint to remove the Hall design and put the standard Air Methods designs on it.
