with regard to debate on previous post:
“We get a lot of calls from people who just need to be put back to bed or have their blood pressure checked. Those calls take an advanced life support unit off duty. It happens every day and creates a big problem for the system."
this quote is from doug wallace of care ems. more in the 1.15.08 print edition of the herald-gazette.

maybe the county should look in to hiring 3-4 nurses who could make house calls for alot of those 911 calls that dont warrent ems....then if the nurse thinks the patient needs to be tranported to hospital, she could call the ems
ok
why cant we charge people for false or needless calls
