Worst names for an ambulance service...

[LucidResq]

If you're not familiar with CO... the Cripple Creek wheelchair van looks pretty offensive.

While before my time, Angels has always seemed like a silly name to me. Response and General as well...

I'm not totally sure how I feel about vanity-named services (I work at one).

How about these?

Mercy --> Response --> General --> Samaritan --> American
Anybody notice a pattern?

Oh there is also a Emergency Med Stat here which is dumb

And that is Universal EMS. For whatever reason. It reminds me of the Ghost Busters. lol

Didn't you work for an ambulance service not too long ago that had a name like that...? AND did only IFT?
OTOH, I work for a service that has it too... but if you ask one of our owners, it's all an acronym for something else.

You mean Rapid Ambulance? Meh, not the best of names, but I haven't heard of another Rapid Ambulance out there.

Mother, Jugs, and Speed?

How about when Fishbine Ambulance and Unity Ambulance amalgamated at the end of the movie and the ambulances were relabled F & U?

Why do I get the feeling there's probably never been a cardiac monitor break the plane of the doors on this truck, despite the gigantic QRS complex on the side.

I personally think Stevens County Sheriff's Ambulance is the coolest name ever, but I may be biased.

I sure hope there has! It says paramedic on the side!

Gee, I feel stupid now, completely missed that.

We had a debate at work today and we both agreed that action scare has the best paint scheme of any Denver-metro private ambulance. Although AMR Colorado Springs looks pretty dang cool.

I'll agree that any "care" ambulance sounds over used. Same with medlifecareflightevac, it's just over used. I would call my ambulance company "almost made it" it would make me giggle.

God that picture brings back the worse month of my life working ambulance But the newer ACA trucks have a damned good paint scheme.
When I worked near Odessa, there was an "Elite" Ambulance (at least Ithink that's the name) that had bright orange ambulances with magnetic logos on it... Those were... interesting...

Apparently Pineapple Express Ambulance is now just Express Ambulance (do they do packages and priority mail too?).

Everytime I see Xtreme Care Ambulance I think of Howard and Kumar Go to White Castle.
