Back then, police transported injured people from emergency scenes by loading them into their cars or wagons and taking them to hospitals in a job affectionately called the "swoop and scoop." The paramedic squad finally hit the streets in 1975, and a new recruit and Vietnam War veteran named Bob Kennedy went on the first two calls : a drunk guy who fell off his crutches at a Point Breeze bar and a double shooting in Homewood. http://www.post-gazette.com/neigh_city/20030120newsmaker0120p3.asp City approves contract with Oswego County Ambulance Service -

The 67-year-old disabled man died of chest injuries less than an hour after the accident. Police in Shamokin (shuh-MOH'-kin), Pennsylvania, say the steps were steep, and were covered with snow. An ambulance had brought Melvin Miller from the hospital to his house. He'd been disabled for years. Police say two emergency medical technicians were carrying Miller in his chair up some steps when the E-M-T holding the back of the chair lost his balance and fell onto Miller.

In the long run, the recommendation offers a way to end a festering dispute over what some complain is a chaotic, competitive free-for-all among ambulance companies. But in the short term, the EMS recommendation is sure to bring to a boil an intense fight over who is allowed to provide ambulance service, and where. http://www.recordnet.com/daily/news/articles/012803-gn-2.php Chief: Firefighters need to work around the clock - Masschusetts "I don't think any self-respecting EMT will say, 'I'm not going out between midnight and 6 a.m.' Why they don't answer the tone is beyond me," Hegeman said of the full-timers. Under the present schedule, the full-timers work staggered shifts from 6 a.m. to midnight, Monday through Friday. Weekend shifts are manned by call or full-timers who sign up for overtime. No one commits to remaining on call overnight. Full-time firefighter Christopher Ready said full-timers do respond to overnight calls if they are available, but it's unfair to expect them to be on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week. http://www.tauntongazette.com/site/news.cfm?BRD=1711&dept_id=24238&newsid=68 43612&PAG=461&rfi=9 Defenders Reveal Detroit EMS Troubles - Michigan Union President Says Driver Training Is Minimal.
