well curiosity killed the cat and kill me just had to check it out anyways.

i work for a private ambulance service and we do have those transports where pts get up and walk to the cot just as good as you and me and the only reason their being transported by ambulance is because they send him with a hepwell or nothing at all. but they way the company i work for we run 1-2 basic trucks 1-interm. truck, 1 medic truck during the day plus two 24-medic trucks we do the all transport for the small local hospital 4-nursing homes plus 911 for 4 townships in the county when we get busy its so fustrating when your the only medic truck available and you get tide up on taking someone to a higher level of care hospital thats 45-60 mins away for migrains, diareaha, and nausia when they could just take themselves or have some family member take them that are sitting with them are just going to be following right behind you anyways.

where i work most runs transport to hospital is 1-10 mins away we sit there till we get everything done unless we have a third crew member then we transport and do everything enroute.
