Hi all, this is my first post back in a while, but I have a question for the Paramedics on this board.
The other day, I was crossing past one of the local Emerges and I noticed an EMS van parked in the ambulance bay. The van itself was just a regular full-sized van complete with the markings of the local EMS service in addition to it saying "Support Services" on the side of the vehicle. I've seen these vans around town a few times now, and I'm always curious as to what their purpose is and what exactly is meant by "Support Services". Do these vans basically just carry extra supplies, or are they from a special EMS sub-unit with very specific purposes? The vans themselves are not ambulances, but as I said, just a regular marked full-size van complete with lightbar and strobe lights on the rear. Any answers would be tremendously appreciated.
Thanks in advance guys!
