I'm gaining valuable experience that will benefit me in FDNY EMS and/or NYC Hospital EMS

Sandpit I was mainly saying how no more 89s due to the recent attacks on Paris. That's one of NYCs measures that we are taking. Some EMS folks feel we are a bigger target if we are all hanging at the base as opposed to being at 89s

Did you know hospitals pay $1m/year to participate in the FDNY 911 system? http://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424052748703493504576007743046682606

We have them at our volly Came in handy when the driver deployed us EMTs we jumped over a barrier to an mva while the ambulance drove around and met us on the other side My issue with drivers is they don't drive an ambulance for a living, and the only experience these drivers are getting is...

In NYC, 911 ambulances are to be deployed from the hospital or base for the next few days. No more sitting at 89s (designated intersections) around town. So we got to most of the calls first as a local volunteer ambulance.

I do enough txp/IFT is my full time job I do 40-50 hours a work trying to make ends meet beleive me i have my IFT down the only thing that drives me to continue is that I'm months away from having a 1 year of experience, we also do get emergencies from SNFs, doc offices, assisted living, and txp...

How to integrate: When we log in, give us jobs, spread em around. How I see our role as NYC Vollies: 1) We often are local-based so we arrive to the scene first along with FD's CFRs, therefore getting pt's treated and txp faster. 2) We give overburdened 911 crews more breaks, as evidenced by...

No one gets paid at our volly

I hear NJ vollies get dispatched 911

Just saying that's how it's done at the private I work at, not saying it's the same for all other privates. Just one example. One thing is certain: there's no extensive training that's conducted for months like FDNY EMS academy. It consists of: - Working IFT for 3-6+ months - Passing a 70...

I'm talking about the process of how an EMT or Medic would switch from IFT to 911 within the same company

Bed stuy is gentrifying. 2nd East New York and Brownsville. Bronx is so busy their trying to get more units. Transcare runs a lot of the 911 under different hospitals i.e. Bronx Lebanon, mount Sinai, st barnabus, etc just look for the Velcro patches it's probably Transcare

No they don't. I'll give you an example. Private companies have 911 contracts with hospitals. From what I heard to make the transition from IFT isn't that elaborate. One takes a test, does ridealongs, goes through a day of classroom stuff, then has to put an application in to FDNY EMS to get a...

Thing is we do log in and out and FDNY dispatchers are well aware specifically when our volly is in service. They will however only call us for "mutual aide" during disasters, blackouts, snowstorms, hurricanes, etc Some believe that the city doesn't want to give away the jobs/money that would...

Military ain't for everyone

Board use for txf only not for txp. Collar use is good. And no standing take downs. Ked can be used but must be removed prior to txp.

They probably buffed it. I was working a volly as well. We were the first ambulance there and they had like 4 POVs with emergency lights, some of them medics too. Insisted their ambulance is on the way and they would be txp. And yes they did txp. Their bus along with FDNY EMS showed up around...
