Quite surprised to see you guys get dispatched to a car lock-in. Especially if no animal or child is trapped. Normally over in U.K., you just send for a locksmith. Fire wouldn’t even think about turning out. Hell I once had a 600 LTR diesel spill right into a nature reserve and couldn’t even get them to turn out with spill kit. Seems like you guys turn out to everything to assist the community. Nice to see, keep up the great work.

@mikel9567 Жыл бұрын

As an FTO myself, I'm going to tell you that is a horrible thing to do. No one wants you to imitate them. He can be an inspiration and a mentor but that doesn't mean you should copy him. What I tell my trainees in EMS is you need to make the job your own. You need to be yourself. That doesn't mean that you can't use what you learn from others to help shape you, but in the end you need to be yourself. I'm sure Captain Pickford and any other mentor worth their salt would agree with that too. Make the role your own and become a mentor and role model for others to emulate, not to copy.

Do you always send a second apparatus to medical calls? If there is a crew of three on the ambulance, it seems like beeing enough for day-to-day calls. Here in Germany, fire resources are usually only send for forcing doors or lift assistance. Some larger cities are using them as first responders too, but its not standard.
