  1. hi i'm diong an assignment on different types of ems systems around the world South Africa is a country of economic and social contrasts. Read the notes and additional articles and discuss EMS in South Africa in comparison to EMS systems in the Europe and USA. would like to know how your ems system works all details will help thanx
  2. A question that has come up which is a better light bar to use one with strobes, or rotators, or the new LED light bars what do you guys think. and if you know of any good web sites with light bars on it let me know thanx chris
  3. where i work i would say #neck of femur/hip do so many primary and inter hospitals calls for those.
  4. lately we getting most of our calls monday morning between 01h00 and 06h00 but i just think it's coz people don't want to go to work that day. other than that at 18h10, 35min before shift change.
  5. thanx for all information so far the 5,10,20 rule sounds like it can work well and i will keep it in mind when working. And i like the idea of the emergency shut-off switch just to put light on the matter i'm sure fire/rescue would come out to every call but they are just so understaffed and vechiles & equipment so outdated i guess we'll have to have some real $h#t hit the fan before the government will think of spending money on them.
  6. I have noticed on our roads with more cars getting airbag there is a growing problem, in a MVA cars with airbags the airbags don't deploy making my job more difficult coz most of the time fire/rescue does not come out or they get there to late or if they are there they don't have the right equipment to protect me form doing my job. What do you guys/girls do on that side of the world i would like some ideas Cheers chris
