I work for a BLS service. We run basic level calls for non emergent services as well as back up for our local county service which is ALS. We also are expanded scope too! Most of the time we dont get ALS calls but sometimes your routine bls call will turn to an als in a blink of an eye. I have only had an intercept ONCE.. and it was duely needed. I make the decision if I need one or if i proceed routine or 10-18 (emergency traffic) to the local hospital. Just because I am not a medic does not mean I dont have knowledge or experience than some of the medics out there. I have known medics who basically shit their pants in situations that some basics have excelled in!
