    Paramedics Plus Alameda County

    All calls are at minimum EMT Medic... Alpha calls are the only ones ran code 2... There is a BLS division on the horizon and it will be called patients plus. They will not be absorbed into the 911 system, except for maybe 5150's but that hasn't been confirmed yet.

    Paramedics Plus Alameda County

    No clue eithe. We have coded calls which are alpha,bravo,Charlie,delta,echo. And there is numbers associated with them depending on the type on call. Like you mentioned 9 for cardiac arrest, I'm pretty sure it's coded as a 9Echo1. But no one really knows the numbers unless you run a lot of the...

    Paramedics Plus Alameda County

    There has actually been even more then that. Unfortunately even though the app is online, the link is shut down and I believe they are working off the list of apps they currently have. What you need to do is contact the recruiter in Texas.... Good luck

    AMR's Fate

    I get as a company overall they aren't hurting, but it seems like slowly their contracts are slipping away. It was said that ALCO accounted for some 40% of AMR's overall income. Im sure loosing BLS contracts isn't helping the matter

    Hypothermia pre hospital

    It's apart of Alameda County protocol. Seems to be the best way to reduce the risk of getting ROSC back and having the pt's system begin working so hard to recover from the "event", that you turn around and loose the pt again. Its been proven that if you are able to slow the heart as well as the...

    AMR's Fate

    I heard recently that AMR lost ALCO,SCCO kaiser contracts. Anyone know about this? They lost 911 contracts in both of those areas, now BLS? That's gotta hurt if its true.

    AMR to Paramedics Plus in Alameda County

    Good idea. It's pretty safe to say that right now the hr department is a little overwhelmed. They will get back to you if you meet the qualifications for an interview.

    AMR to Paramedics Plus in Alameda County

    Yea sorry it's all dependent on what county level the paramedic is. If they are level 1 (new medics) they work with level 3 (more expierience).... Level 3 medics however can work medic/EMT units.

    AMR to Paramedics Plus in Alameda County

    Alot of what your saying is infact false. I'll lay a few of the rumors to rest. They are using a priority dispatch system. As you know we get sent code 3 to some very rediculous calls, so with this new system we will get sent code 2 (not dual Emt, all units are staffed with 2 medics) tO the...

    Bay Area ambulance companies?

    Although the changes are listed in the RFP,which I did state in my blog, they were put there because they were things PP+ wanted to bring to the table. Such as the dispatch program they are going to go with. I think PP+ will overall be a better company to work for then AMR, regardless if the...

    Bay Area ambulance companies?

    I can not speak largely on SCCO... But as far as ALCO, from what I have read, it seems like PP+ is striving for some unity between ambulance and fire agencies. They have bought all the fire agecies new lifepak 15's and Lucas CPR devices. Along with that part of it, they are revamping...

    Bay Area ambulance companies?

    AMR's reputation of employee's "being a number" and being over priced seems to be catching up with them. They are loosing 2 good sized contracts in the same year. Me personally, I dont see them making it back into ALCO or SCC strictly based on the fact of the new companies taking over both of...
