around here, we have.....

the standard, interchangeable "MedStat", "First Call", "Pro-Med", and "Lifeguard". With those you could basically mix and match the first and second words of each for hours of fun of creating your own name ........ex. "FirstMed" or "LifeStat". The one that might trip you up would be "MedMed".

There's also "EMPACT", Regional, Liberty, and Rural/Metro.

around here we have Pro-Transport 1.

Never really got the name.

Why the "one?"

Then they are called a whole amalgamation of combos such as Pro-T, Pro-1, Transport-1 and Pro-Transport. It's like throwing darts...

here in jersey i've seen Friendly Care, GEM, LifeStreams, AMBICAB, Medi-Taxi, Trans-Med, People Transport, Sunny, Virgo, Bell Medical, and my personal favorite FUCHS EMS. I'm sure there's more to see and I shall post more if I do. Btw Bullets I actually used to work for Always Caring or as we called Never Caring, but the decussion about them is a WHOLE new thread.
