From what I hear for Pomona and ive heard the city of Pomona, Claremont etc are not happy about losing Schaefer. If any fight, im sure AMR will try everything. We're simply repeating history. Falk aka CARE has former amr management so they already know what route the other companys thinking.

By the way im shocked Mccormick was able to bid when they back owe the county a ton of money same for Americare who has been operating on and off again with no insurance. Than CARE with previous accusations of kick backs in OC.

Doctors appealed during the last OC bid. After the appeals were reviewed, the county gave what little Doctors was awarded in the first bid to Care.
I do hope it works out in Schaefer's favor. They're terribly managed and this was the enivitable outcome of that mismanagement, but I'd be real sad to see them disappear.

Oh yea. Big time history especially with the marilyn monroe death. I remember my older brother getting his pinky stuck in a nutt. My grandfather took a look and told my grandmother call Schafers boys. What showed up was a Schaefer paramedic and EMT and than eventually them failing to remove it and him being taken to the nearest fire house to have it grinded off as the medic kept him calm. Those were the days! 1994 is when the county came in and took over ems and fire. The citizens held a protest and march against it.

In my opinion, this is a joke, and has caused me to lose respect for one of the last decent 911s.

I can already see the already meat head egos rising even more. JR fire fighters now have the colors to match their egos.[Cause drama]

AMR is looking at the long run. AMR can easily walk away from Los Angeles and it won't effect Envision Healthcare one little bit. The long play has always been look at acquiring vs. fighting.

Those rig graphics do everything to bring down our profession. Let fire departments fight fire and let EMS do medical. Try telling that to some IAFF union boss though and they might have a heart attack lol.

Seems like this is the full collapse of what was left when AMR took over the goodhew empire.

If they can truly do it for less cost etc than great. I think they will eventually just pave the way for LAco to get its own transport ambulances or open up a can of worms like CARE had in OC with paying off politicians. It was even written up in JEMS.

This is why so many people are upset about this. We have former care employees who hated it there..
Also I recently heard that OC fire is looking to do away with being the primary care provider and wants a private ambulance company with medics to come in and take over. Is that true?

Far from the truth. They threw the biggest fit when Lynch started the OC private paramedic pilot program. You bring in privates thats lost jobs in the eyes of the IAFF as well as budget reduction. The current Care management is former AMR management. That's why this is all going like new oil in a motor. They know the people, the in and outs, as well as Faulk owner of CARE having DEEP DEEP European pockets. If AMR wanted to or any large firm, you would walk into OC and blast the citys for using European outsourcing vs a local American company. It would fly due to OC being largely conservative/Republican and patriotic.

Oh BRO!! So sick!
It'll be a cold day in hell if OC relinquished control to private medics. OCFA ran a smear campaign against Lynch when they first started using medics. It was depressingly hilarious the claims in the OC Register were.
