little more info MIT has 1 bls ambulance staffed by student volunteers Harvard has a student volunteer EMT squad but no vehicles Professional Ambulance provides all of the transport units - CFD does not have any transport units iirc - except maybe R1 can transport non emergency calls all go to private or hospital ambulance services Professional Ambulance transport units can be als or bls historically - cataldo ambulance service in somerville has been the backup source of ambulances for Cambridge - and arlington r1 has gone to at least 1 call in cambridge - and probably watertown r1 and belmont r1 also - boston ems avoids cambridge like the plague - have not heard them do mutual aid in 50 years - which is very weird because boston fd and cambridge fd do mutual aid all the time (mostly for station coverage and multi alarm fires) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "massfire" group.
