Is Amr hurting bad down there? Last time I saw any news Amr was only temporarily taking over after shaefer fell apart
AMR is hurting in a lot of different places. They just activated their Emergency Response Team to help support staffing. Riverside county is getting 8 of the AMR ERT Medics and San Bernardino is getting 30 medics.
Wow that’s insane, I had no idea they were that short. I mean riverside was also short medics, didn’t realize San Bernardino was that bad too. I didn’t know Amr had such a system for staffing like that. It’s pretty neat actually.
They haven’t used the ERT for routine staffing before.
Depends on how they are being utilized. During a disaster response, no they do not have to get any additional certificates and rely on their home protocols.
Is AMR paying for hotels and/or per diem? If so, sounds like they (the guys on the ERT) are making bank, whereas AMR is spending a lot more money on that than they are just hiring adequate crews for those areas (even if they give pay raises to actually recruit adequate crews, that can't cost more than paying ERT like that, right?)
Hotel and meals are covered by the company. From what I’ve been told by higher ups is that they are being paid door to door. So it will be 24/7 pay for the 24 days.
