Had a call for a guy tripping out after eating some weed crackers for the first time. We called the base to let them know we were coming and the MICN said "I copy your traffic. Just continue in BLS and stop at Del Taco on your way".

I now have a new favorite MICN haha

Ran a code at a casino today. PD brought a video recording by of the whole thing, pretty wild to watch.

Transported in a local BLS department's latest monster ambulance for the first time today. Look at the size of this thing!!

^ That's pretty much what every ambulance down here looks like. Except, they're either red or white.

We have some internationals. Thankfully replaced by all brand new dodges. They are now reserve units.

 

[chaz90]

Almost all ambulances in the area are Type I Internationals, but this one is particularly massive. It's an extended wheelbase with an extended cab as well, along with extra height for the box mounted exterior AC unit. We have one 6'7ish paramedic who can stand up in the back of this unit without bumping his head. Some of our shorter medics can't even reach the handrails!

In some ways it almost seems like it's become a little bit of an ambulance based Cold War in the area. Every department wants to own the largest truck. I believe this ambulance is actually the largest in the state of Delaware.

That thing looks like it should be able to carry a full 4 person company plus all the rescue/extrication tools normally on the engine or truck

Or get that AC on full blast and fill it with beers and everyone at the beach can have a kick *** time!

Yeah, I'd say that is more along the lines of what most of the local departments have. Still huge inside!

 

[DesertMedic66]

This is ours. It's not used to transport patients. It's a mobile dispatch center that we use for some of our largest events.

Is this the EMS version of comparing the sizes of a certain part of the male anatomy?

I've seen variations on this type of machine for a while. What they don't show you is how deep you need to go...
