Perhapes but in Los Angles city, which the mod is based on.   Runs

2 Fighter/paramedics.

 

You can find that info  Here

 

 

Rescue Ambulances numbered 1-112, as well as those in the 200 Series are considered ALS Rescue Ambulances, as they are staffed by Firefighter/Paramedics.

 

and Here

 

The backbone of the LAFD EMS system are the 130 Rescue Ambulances assigned to fire stations throughout the city. Split into two categories, the Paramedic or ALS (Advanced Life Support) Rescue Ambulance is staffed by two Firefighter/Paramedics and is able to transport a single patient on a Ferno 28Z PROFlexx gurney chair/cot or the PROFlexx Model 93-PST “heavy lift gurney.”

 

Do you have any sources for your statement?

Maybe I misunderstood the topic - if you're talking about the FD specifically - then yes, your ambulance will have 2 paramedics/firefighters on a 911 call. If you dial 911 and you get a county response from a company like AMR or Paramedics Plus, that ALS unit will be staffed with one paramedic and one EMT. Sources? I'm an EMT in the state of California working within the EMS system. I can't link that.

Curious: Would AMR or LAFD cover the port district for medical calls? Guessing LAFD since they handle fires in the area to my knowledge. However, I think the policy your referring to may be AMR nationwide. Maybe not, but I know that locally AMR typically runs ALS rigs with one Medic/one EMT and we are a city of about 120,000 vs 4 Million in LA.

Yes, I thought I said that. AMR or whoever has the 911 contract runs ALS with one paramedic and 1 EMT. We have AMR in one county and the next county north is Rural Metro - both run the medic/emt combo.

My quote button isn't working, but in the second post in this thread there are screenshots of additional stations etc - where do you get those? Second question is that Xplorer mentioned to stand by for something big...or something like that. Was this new patch the big thing? Thanks.

My impression was that the AMR(I missed the part about Paramedics Plus) was this was California only and did not reflect AMR has a whole.

 

Re: Stations: They are in this mod.The buildings them selves are in the original LA Mod as well.

 

Re: Something Big - Noooo far from it. At this point I am pretty much just doing bug fixes but at this point it seems like things are pretty stable as I am not hearing any bug reports at this point. You should see news on "something big" coming in the next few days.

[Tactics]

Yeah I only have contact with AMR in California. I don't work in the 911 system. I do BLS transport mostly. We run a 2 EMT rig and mostly do nursing facility to hospital and back. We are on the 911 overflow, but we've only gotten called in once.

I think you are correct that FD would respond to a medical emergency at the port with a contracted AMR type company rolling only if there were multiple patients.

Big news = cool. Thanks.

That likely because a La County Paramedic squad would be responding as well. That would place 3 paramedic on site.

LAFD transports patients themselves.

Did you follow the directions EXACTLY?

[bryanandbrandonl]

Yes sir. I used winzip im not sure if that could be the problem. I am downloading winrar right now to see if that fixes it. Thanks for idea buddy.

[bryanandbrandonl]

Same thing. When I try to open it wih winrar it shows as a notepad document with a bunch of words..

[Xplorer4x4]

You are extracting the rar file first, then clicking the e4mod file right?

[bryanandbrandonl]

Yes it shows up in the winrar menu as a notepad.

[Xplorer4x4]

If you have the e4mod file extracted, find the mod installer and simply choose install package and choose the e4mod file.

Donation sent! Least I can do for all your hard work. This always has been my favorite submod. 

[Xplorer4x4]

THANK YOU! Goes a long way to help me out right now! Arthritis in 2 shoulders, bulging disc in my back, a screwed up neck, and 2 bad knees(lacking cartridge in one) makes it hard to work a normal job and the little government aid I get is not much so it is greatly greatly appreciated!
