Every town in my area has a personal Ambulance Service, but as for private, Rural Metro is used.

In my city we have an ambulance company called REMSA, I think it stands for Reno Emergency Medical Services Authority or something like that.

In Japan, Most emergency medical service comes from the city fire department. Where both EMT and Paramedic service is offer. With Doctor support on the radio. Some hospitals have private ambulances.

When a Very High Medical Emergency call comes in. City Management could use teams of on-call Medical Staff from hospitals. This would bring doctors to the scene of the emergency.

I also think the Japanese Red Cross could help if needed.

More likely Military Medical support can be call in if the Emergency is very major.

Emergency Medical is provided regionally in the UK with most large hospitals having an ambulance depot and there are occassionally ambulance stations dotted around where there isn't a hospital. Each region will have a varying number of standardised ambulances and RRV's and some, depending on location, may have specialist kit.

I could have sworn you said in your Country? Do you live in China? No.

Anyways, country, i live in the USA and it carries. Hard to describe EMS based on the cuntry but lets see here, its pretty much either the fire department provides EMS, or a private company. In terms of country, discussion over.

Now if you want to narrow it down to say, city, in that case FD provides first in medical aid until AMR arrives for ALS and patient transfer.

Your SD has an ambulance? The only time I really remember seeing ambulances is they were once used for CSI here, and I think they still should be as theyd have far more storage room then the pos jeep Cherokees we use now.

999 also operates only in Beijing,China as a private company. San Fransisco has FD ambulances along with AMR.

999 operates in the UK too as a phone number

NHS and St.John Ambulance service. That's it. Nothing else to say.

In the town where I live,a private company provides ambulance service. In the large city directly connected (Boston) there is a City EMS service with backup coming from several private services. In more rural towns, the fire department provides EMS service, though n most cases they only provide BLS service and a private company has the ALS contract.

Apparently the EMSS does provide ambulances for the whole country of China,their website is http://www.emss.cn,if you want english,it is http://www.emss.cn/english/index.asp.

[Seluryar]

we have AMR and city fire department ambulances here in my city, fire department is called, they arrive, assess the situation, if its not life threatening, then AMR is called in to transport(i think) i usually see city fire department and AMR at a scene at the same time

[917893678251]

Well,I like to see some site links to the EMS operators,I know there is one.China,India and Thailand has one along with AMR and rural metro.I would like to know some more about EMS in other countries besides the US.

I don't think Xplorer cares, he was pointing out that the title states your country and you talk about China, which isn't the country you are in.

yes they do have an ambulance service lol. They provide backup 911 to the city of New Castle and we contract our paramedic through them haha. they drive a SD ford explorer with full sheriff markings and a red/blue light bar, but with all their ALS gear in the back. they go to the scene and then once we arrive they decide whether or not to transport with us.

So what if I don't live in China,I am still from China.What's the problem talking about China's EMS?

[joachimnor]

The yellow ones was introduced between 5-2 years ago (Dont remember lol)

and fagkoordinator is like a profession coordinator or something

to 9blablablabla You ALWAYS talk about china and how much better it is than everyone else... its kinda going on my nerves

Here in Canada, EMS is **Mainly** a seperate service for the Fire Department. There aren't any private EMS Companies that I know of, not that run 911 calls. We do have St John's Ambulance, etc., but, as said, they dont run 911 calls. In the Niagara Region, we have Niagara Emergency Medical Service (NEMS). NEMS has one Paramedic, and one EMT on every ambulance, that way, there's no discrepency on which rig to send. Closest rig gets the run. Now, in Fort Erie, if it is a life threatening situation, and the ambulance is more than 8 minutes away, we also send Fire. Our Pumps don't go, we send a Rescue or Heavy Rescue, depending on the district Its pretty complicated
