I've seen the Hall CCT semi truck once. I was actually leaving an interview with them and driving back to LA and I passed it going the opposite direction on the highway on the outskirts of Bakersfield

I've seen it as it was driving past, but that's the extent of it. I've been to the air base though, and have seen MedEvac One.

Only 120sq mi?

 

[Angel]

Only 120sq mi?

i wikipedia'd it and its actually 840 combined...not sure where 120 came from...we also do some mutual aid for neighboring counties but im not sure how often.

 

[Tigger]

Only 120sq mi?

Well people probably actually live there haha. We cover 600 square miles and close to twice that on auto aid, but the biggest town is like 8000 and I am not going to pretend we are a "busy" service. I think we do like 2400 calls a year between 2 ambulances.

 

[Anjel]

We cover 660sq mi. 9 units on at any given time. About 38k calls per year.

 

[DesertMedic66]

We cover ~5,000 square miles with ~20 ALS units and 4 BLS units per day with over 25K calls per year.

 

[Angel]

Daaang. That's crazy.
Last year our call volume was ~25k with 7 units on days and 3-4 at night so it can get pretty busy.

We cover ~5,000 square miles with ~20 ALS units and 4 BLS units per day with over 25K calls per year.[/QUOTDayan

 

[Burritomedic1127]

6.25 sq miles with about 70k calls per year. 4 ALS 3 BLS (if were lucky) during the day 2 ALS 1 BLS at night

That's untrue. That's 20 calls a day per unit with full staffing. Edit: And that's if all units were all on at the same time on 24's.

70000/365 = 191.7808219178082 (192) calls per day
192 / 10 = 19.2 (20) calls per unit.
