NJ volunteer EMS squad shut down

yeah, and??

an ambulance is there 24/7. staffed. in town. by two trained EMTs.

the town is 8000 people, they can't be that busy (simple numbers).

I'm guessing the service level will be increased having Englewood Hospital run the EMS.
 
You know, I noticed that the link didn't mention anything about level of service provided, it focused on the emotional aspect rather than the technical side.
 
Does this just strip them of the power to run prehospital calls, or are they still gonna kick around as a social club?

Yeah... and something's not adding up with the numbers, if I'm understanding the story properly. It seems a little strange for a town to move to an alternative that costs more without any reason at all.
 
I don't understand the issue... They now have guaranteed coverage 24/7. Oh well ,at least the town is now covered with no gaps

This is exactly what I was looking for. Probably another case of a town that couldn't rally up the volleys enough so they were always either calling for mutual aid or calling a paid service anyway.
