I rather enjoy the unrelated, random emergencies.... but it would be kinda cool to get a call about a person down and after you ask a few nearby witnesses, you find he was assaulted and the raid the guys house Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swatlord Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 I saw in an earlier promo vid that ambulances could carry two patients... Did they do away with that or is something on my end wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billyfromhill Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 I saw in an earlier promo vid that ambulances could carry two patients...

swatlord Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 That was changed in 1.7 when the new EMS system was introduced.AH, I see.... Then in that case I think we should bring it back for some more realism. For example, you could make the BLS ambulance only be able to carry one while ALS could carry two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know personally, but even local units, I don't believe have the capacity for more than one stretcher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoppah Posted October 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Is that 'realsitic' tho? I don't know personally, but even local units, I don't believe have the capacity for more than one stretcher.Theoratically, each ambulance can carry more than 1 patient when there are no stretchers needed. But you're right though, I don't think two stretchers would fit in ambulance, so the max capacity of the ambulances in the mod won't be changed.

You could also make it act like the coroners van, where the patients are stored and the stretcher is freed, and then when it gets to the hospital you could make the stretcher team make two trips.I'm no scripting expert so I don't know how feasible it is....

Hoppah?Take No for an answer.I have a question about LA: why there are not any medics? Only firefighters as meds?I have a question about LA: why there are not any medics? Only firefighters as meds?In LA, the ambulances are run by the fire department aside from private companies like AMR. So in this case the ambulance crew is employed by the city of LA, and thus part of the LAFD making them firefighter/emts and firefighter/parmedics.Like in most of the cases in US and Nordic Countries in Europe.And do you have stats to back that up?

Newfoundking Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Well PRL isn't supported by Hoppah, and as far as I know, CFD hasn't made a 1.9 version that functions correctly (if at all) yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest madforce Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 And do you have stats to back that up?I took his comment that he was agreeing, that most the US and Nordic Countries in Europe operate with paramedics/emt's as part of the fire dept.

Sgt.Wulf Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 And do you have stats to back that up?Nordic countries, Finland, Denmark, Norway and Sweden all utilize fire personnel for medical duties too.I took the saying "paramedic is merged with the firestation" as "Fire personnel have emergency medical care training too".So in this case, it leaves the US. Most of the fire personnel in the US are trained in the field of emergency care, now aren't they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could start IV's if they really wanted to. With all they know, they could start stabilizing before ALS or BLS is on scene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
