FIRST RESPONDER:
First Response Unit #1355 is a 2006 PL Custom Body / Chevrolet Tahoe. The Captain of the squad is issued this vehicle for the duration of his/her one year term. The Captain will respond directly to the scene of the emergency, so that command of the incident can be established and/or medical intervention can begin quickly. The vehicle carries onboard all necessary BLS equipment, including an automatic external defibrillator (AED), oxygen, suction, trauma supplies, pediatric supplies, vacuum splints, a Scott Air-Pak, turn-out gear, a spare Motorola HT1250 16-channel portable radio and can easily convert into an incident command center with its slide-out white board, rear radio control head and green light.
