^wow, and on a side note, thats pretty high quality trait in my book, that you were paying enough attention to start on the way to the scene before you were toned out. You werent sitting around with your head up your ass waiting on dispatch to tone you out. Much respect for that.

Thanks. Run I had today.

EMS 12 came over to Medic 119 while I was preping 2 IV bags and starting the patient on 15 lpms of O2 via nonrebreather. He said to take our patient to OSU as a Level 1 Trauma Alert.

I had to go to the hospital on vacation. I had an ear infection. It was a new hospital and was very nice, but I was there for like 2 hrs.

[Xplorer4x4]

I am pretty familiar with all the sirens we use here. There all the same pretty much. Police and EMS use almost the exact same siren, and all city fire uses the Fed Q on all there rigs. Just heard the strangest siren ever, aside from one of the county BCs who uses one of those sirens that sound like an old dial up modem. Flip on the scanner and all I catch is "I'll be en-route to the jail with one naked male." lol

[TacticalRooster22]

The sirens here- FD has Q and EQ2B, ambos have common wail and stuff w/ air horn, and PD has whelen and stuff. I didn't get to see any of the Sevierville trucks while I was there.

EDIT: Heard a fire truck today. I think it was the new quint. (Still can't find a pic!! ) Was blasting the Q and air horns! Then, I went golfing with my dad. Heard/saw to EMS car and Quint. (I think. Couldn't get a good view due to trees. Could've been the engine.) Then, I was helping my dad in the yard. We were setting up for my B-Day party! Heard another truck. It was probably the engine.

Evansville Police, Evansville Fire, AMR on scene of 2 car "property damage accident." Vanderburgh County Sheriff are on scene for additional traffic control as the road(practically a highway) cuts in and out of the City/County Line. East and West Lanes shut down on a divided highway.

Police Requested Crime Scene Unit. Quint 9 requested Extrication assistance from Rescue 3. Rescue 3 is stationed about 6 miles away, and even though theres a few stations closer, i think there one of the few trucks in the city with extrication equipment.

AMR Supervisor Requested 2 additional trucks besides the 2 on scene.

4 Patients transported. One with a possible broken femur. Another was transported ALS/Code 3. Unsure of the others.

[TacticalRooster22]

I was driving and saw a fire truck flying past a funeral procession.

[Xplorer4x4]

With all due respect to the dead, its not like they have to be rushed to get some where. On the other hand the units rushing to the scene may save some ones life.

[joachimnor]

What is more important? Lifes or respect for the dead? i must say its more important to save someones life then

[JediHutch61]

Call from tuesday night.

Tone, Medic 119, Engine 61, injured person, address, Medic 119, Engine 61, injured person, cross streets, Respond on 9 Delta.

Medic 119 arrives on scene to find a garage engulfed in flame.

Columbus Fire, Medic 119. Go ahead 119, Columbus we have a garage fully involved and no sighting of our patient, send us a first alarm.

Our Patient comes crawling out of the garage, 3rd and 2nd degree burns over 18% of his body. We est. 2 18 GA IVs in right and left AC, gave 10 mg MS IV, and wrapped the affected areas in a burn sheet. Patient was taken lights and sirens to The Ohio State University Medical Center's Burn Unit.

When asked how this occured, the patient answered that he was taking his full gas tank out of his car, BY CANDLE LIGHT!

Once out of the room everyone from the Medic crew to the Docs could not stop laughing.

[Xplorer4x4]

Sounds like the meth lab explosion across the street here. You get much of that up that way?

Guy had burns on over 50% of his body and it took about 10 minuets for the medics to stabilize the patient. He had is apartment so air tight, I guess, the explosion buckled a section of the apartment wall.

But yet the windows did not blow out. Notice the middle set is crooked? Ruined 3 apartments and they were un-rentable for several months.


Fire in a college dorm tonight. It's in the county which is all voly territory so I am unsure what rigs they actually had enough man power to send initially, but they were trying to figure out if they needed the quint or one of the engines.

[TacticalRooster22]

Do you live in one of those apartments from the image?

[Xplorer4x4]

Nope, across the street.

My friend/neighbor had smoke inhalation a few weeks ago from a fire. Not sure why he was in the burning building but I think he was trying to rescue some one or something and had no SCBA or anything as he is just Red Cross worker. He went to the hospital tonight for breathing troubles. Engine 4 made the run which scared me because 4s is never out this way unless it is a fire, or in the case above, meth lab. I think 9s was just busy on another run so 4s had to make it instead. Still beat the ambulance by about 3 or 4 minuets surprisingly. He was taken by ambulance code 1 to the hospital.

[JediHutch61]
