Does any ones ems company have a mounted team? I would love to hear about how yall operate and what kind of training yall do.
 
MedStar in Fort Worth has one. They're the only one I know of.
 
This thread was not about what I thought it was going to be.
 
Why would you want mounted EMS? Are things not difficult already without having a horse to deal with?

....and you thought parking an ambulance was a pain in the ***. I don't even want to know where you'd store the backboards or the oxygen cylinders. "Woah Trigger...."

I could see it if you are in an area with a lot of off road areas or hiking trails.
 
I guess well tell the patient to hop on.
