here it is blue for FF's, most of our ems organizations are paid with vol's but they cant run lights to the station. blue/red for pd. and red for cheifs and emergency vehicles.

yea we might have stepped on a few people's toes but oh well. once we got this guy in the back of our bus he was saying he was going to open the back door and jump out if he saw a cop following us to the hospital. and once we got down to the hospital he ended up having to be restrained by security and also by PD, and one of the security people ended up i think getting bitten we could really figure out why or how he ended up bleeding but he did.

i was just wondering about something and i am going to add a poll to this but what would you do. I am an EMT-b. I was on the Micu riding 3rd person trying to get cleared. So we go on a call and are coming back from the hospital on our way to the station. On the way there their is a dispatch for a psychiatric person and we are going to be passing right by the scene. our bls unit responds cause its a class 2 (bls, light + sirens) call. We (the Micu crew) decide we are going to go an assist them. the bls crew was 2 female emt's, the micu was 1 male medic, me and a female EMT. we respond not notifying county or turning on our lights. county advised out bls to stage in the area because the male pt was violent, had a weapon or some sort and was threatening to kill himself and everyone else. our bls tells county they are staging in the area but didnt say were. i guess we pass right by them and they call us on the radio and tell us to go back to the station and that the will handle, well we tell them that we are just there to assist them and then we will go back to station. i guess it wasn't good enough for them, we see PD enter the scene of the parking lot were the pt is, and we park at the entrance to the lot and stay in out ambulance. we tell the bls to come over and that we are going to help. they throw a fit tell us to get the f**k out of there and they will handle the call themselves. at this time we see the pt with a bat and he is swinging it at PD they are drawing there tasers to we stay. they bls unit goes available is a mean way with county saying " bls available our micu has apparently decided to handle the call". all the while they are on the phone with me giving me a hard time. i was just wondering peoples opinion on the matter. were we right going to help them?
