A Whole Lot of Accidents

Went to bed last night at 02:30 hours and was rocked out of bed this morning at 10:12 hours when the pager went off for an unconscious person in Halifax Township. As soon as I heard the address, I knew it was one of our frequent flyers. I got out of bed and got dressed and then got in my car and headed into the "Barn". I got there and parked and then got in 13-1 and me and Dohn took off. We got there and got the lady loaded up and Medic 6 got on board and we took her down to Harrisburg Hospital. After we got what we needed, we headed on back. While on the way back, we got hit for a person with an altered mental status. 20 and Medic 6 took that call. We dropped the medics off at thier squad and then went to Shell and got fuel. We then headed back to the shed. Bill was there when we got back. I logged my time in and restocked the ambulance and then the three of us talked for a little bit. I then headed on home. Once at home I started to eat lunch, read the paper and watch All My Children on TV. Around 13:40 hours the pager went off for an accident with injuries in Halifax Township by Aumillers. I got my boots on and grabbed my sandwich to take with me. As I walked out of the door, my mother and father were just getting back from Wal-Mart. I got into the "Barn", parked and got in 13-1 and off we went. We got there and got the two people loaded up in the ambulance and then I drove down to Harrisburg Hospital again. While on the way down, we got dispatched for an accident with injuries by Depen Park on Armstrong Valley Road. The Fire Department ended placing EMS in service. Once we got down to the hospital, I was in the EMS room when Sue called me and told me that she was on her way home from Williamstown and would be home in about 45 minutes to an hour and would be around for a second crew then. She also told me that we had another accident at River Vista Drive and Million Dollar Road. Medic 6 ended up taking that one for us. On our way back, we were sitting in traffic on South River Road, when we were dispatched to the Health Center in Millersburg Borough for chest pains. We went responding and I ended up driving to the scene. Our medic was coming out of Cumberland County and we ended up placing them in service as they were not needed. We got the lady loaded up and I started down to Harrisburg Hospital. I went around the mountain and anout a 1/2 a mile from the Clarks Ferry Bridge, I noticed that traffic was slowing down. I then saw a guy standing out side and he started walking towards the ambulance. I put my window down and he asked me if we had a EMT on board. I said yes and asked him what the problem was amd he said that there was an accident. I told Dohn that we were pulling over and then I let county know and told them to dispatch Company 29 and our second unit to the scene. There ended up being 3 pt's. We took one lady from the accident down to Harrisburg and 13-2 took the two guys from the other vehicle down to Hershey. On 13-2 were Sue, Amanda, Deanna and Bill. After we got things under control at the accident, we continued on our way to the hospital. After we got what we needed, we headed on back. I had turned into go to McDonald's and I saw that they were closed, along with Subway. So I decided to go back to the shed. Once there I logged my time in and then me and Dohn talked to Carol and we were able to get her to let all of us enter the tripsheets from today into the system. I then cleaned my car off and headed up to Sheetz to grab something to eat. I then headed back to the shed and did my tripsheet. 13-2 then got back and they dropped Bill off and restocked. They then went to Station 29 and I followed them so I could talk to Sue and Amanda. They stopped at Shell and I continued to the station. I got there and parked and went inside and talked to a few people until they got there. Kim moved the police car out so Sue could back the ambulance into the station. They then sat down to eat their dinner. We then were sitting there talking and the lights flicked on and off and then came back on. We continued talking, when 29 got tapped out for an odor of something burning at 27 Gali Road. I jumped in 13-2 and Sue and Amanda and we were out the door before the fire department was. We got there and me and Sue both went inside the house. Sue went in to try and find another ice scrapper to help the lady clean her car off so she could move it. I went in to check and see what I could find. It ended up being a furnace malfunction. Once we got back to the shed, I got my love from Sue, Amanda and Kim and headed on home. Once at home I took a shower and am soon going to crash in bed as I am tired.
