In our fire apparatus we have fire comm units for communication from the driver and officer to the personnel in the back of the unit. Does anybody have the fire comm units in their ambulances? Our current ambulance only has a 1' x 2' window between the front cab and rear patient compartment. We have no direct communication between the attendants in the back and the driver/officer. Our helmets hang on hooks that mostly block the windows so the attendant has to peak his head in to the window and yell to the driver.
The fire comm units also allow us to hear dispatch information about the call we are currently en route to. We do not have a radio speaker in the patient compartment so the attendants in the back usually do not know what we are going for unless we have our pagers with us. The patient compartment has a remote unit for communications outbound to dispatch communications and the hospital.
