La City Rescue Ambulances and Fast Response Units?

3 posts in this topic

I have a few questions regarding  some of the Rescue Ambulances. Is the ambulance at Station 103 a Paramedic unit or is it a BLS unit? In other words is it a 900 unit?

Are there any variable staffed RA's paramedic units  or are they all BLS units. If so which ones are ALS and which ones are BLS units?  Are there now 4 Low acuity units (frequent flyer ambulances) in service and if so where are they located?

As of the last budget request the fire department wanted to have on in each of the 4 field bureaus.

Are there now also 4 Fast Respone units in service as in the budget request they also wanted one in each of the 4 field bureaus? If I am correct the original one is still at Station 91 and the second one is at Station 9 but was originally located at Station 20 correct?

The only thing I can answer is FS 103 has RA 903 a 24 hr BLS resource.

800 and 900 series rescues are BLS. Example: Station 9 runs rescue 9 and 209. Those are ALS paramedic rescues. Rescue 809 and 900 are BLS emt’s.
