Because of the poor staffing we have in some large cities. I know it Baltimore he definitely doesn't have it too well. In DC I've had long waits like that too.

It was pretty memorable and I got the time from dispatch, since my next closest single-patient extrication time was around 2 hours.

I'm thinking 10 days. After the first couple they just seem to run together. Such is the life in SoCal this time of year.

Over use of the EMS system when it get real bussy they take a company out of service in each battalion and have them ride a critical alert medic. Worst was during the snow storm they had about 60 ems runs on the CAD at any given time with only 24 front line medics in the city there was alot of waiting.
