The county just north of us still has them on the rigs. And we were trained to use them as EMT-B's, but our county doesn't have them. I've noticed the medics that have been out in the field a while have several uses for them, while the newer medics don't.

Our protocol for EMTs is that we can assist a medic in applying them, but that's it. We could theoretically use them as an air spint on our own, but that's a moot point since we don't have any on our department anyway. I'm not sure any of the ALS units around here are even carrying them anymore.
