Top Issues Facing Responders:
budget cuts and lack of adequate manpower. We responded to over 5,300 calls in 2008 running from 1 manned station. Our minimum manning is 5 personnel which occurs more often than not. We operate on 24 hour shifts with up to 8 personnel max. Carrer personnel run an HME Quint and a Ford Excursion as first out medical unit. 2 of the 3 shifts also have a Battalion Chief. The other shift has 2 Lieutenants.
