Out here in Las Vegas our squads are similar to yours. They are a 2 man paramedic unit, that runs basically a utility pick up truck. Our “rescues” our the actual box ambulances that can transport, and then they have a Heavy Rescue, and separate Air/light units. Then you look at New York City, their Squads are basically engine companies, who can also act as truckies, and are trained in hazmat.

@billbatdorf31372 жыл бұрын
Hello Peaceman73: Locally, There is no formal definition of a Squad vs a Rescue. In our community and surrounding areas, we're considered a Squad because we don't carry hydraulic rescue tools, also known as the "Jaws of Life" by most people. The truck you saw in the video can do "Truck Work" with the saws, hooks etc., it can do "Rescue work" with the tools, saws, struts etc., it can do "Re-hab" work with the MRE meals, coffee maker, refrigerator full of water and Gatorade, it can do Haz-Mat work with the absorbant blankets, booms, absorbant etc. Essentially, it is a resource for Chief fire officers that can handle most any hazard until the arrival of resources with greater capabilities and supplies. Thanks for your interest. Captain 33 Neptune Fire Company.

Hello Cube Hospitality Group: Just to be clear...Neptune Fire Company does not represent itself as a rescue company. Although, I would suggest that if you were trapped in your bedroom and the building was on fire, you would want Squad 33 to be on the assignment. (Define Rescue?) With that said, in the event of a traffic accident where you or a loved one is trapped in your vehicle or a similar personal rescue , it would work something like this...of our three neighboring departments who have hydraulic rescue tools, the closest "rescue" to your accident would be dispatched along with an engine company and the squad company, plus an ambulance and an advance life support unit (Paramedic). On arrival, the engine company would assume responsibilities of fire protection.....i.e. making sure you don't burn to death in your vehicle. The Squad would assume the responsibility of stabilizing the vehicle (preventing it from turning over on you or another firefighter or rolling away uncontrollably), disconnecting the battery power to prevent fire or unanticipated inflation of air bags or electrical issues that could start a fire, removal of the windshield or window glass etc. The assigned unit with hydraulic rescue tools would begin extrication operations and upon completion, would then turn you (or your loved one) over to EMS for treatment, either BLS (basic life support) or ALS (advanced life support). Just a friendly reminder...Every one of these people are 100% volunteer...they left work, school, jobs etc. to respond to your emergency and they were paid nothing to do so. Thank you for your interest in this video. Captain 33 Neptune Fire Co.

Wouldn't a standard truck, if offered by the manufacturer be a lot cheaper than ordering a very specific one? Aren't the departments across the USA similar in their requirements, that an off the rack truck would fit? These are paid for by tax payers money in most part.
