Detroit EMS: No Unit Available

Interesting look into the countries worst city's EMS service. Paramedics suspended for giving donated blankets to patients, punished for bringing light to problems with the system, and the list goes on.

  • there are only a handful of ambulances in Detroit and you see them constantly racing around.. sadly its rushing to fake calls or people that don't really need medical assistance. the people here are so disgustingly unhealthy that some will get slightly out of breath and call 911 saying they're having a heart attack.

    • @lastmanindetroit Your word against the EMT who said people are dying? Yeah I think ill look at the problem at hand instead of turning a blind eye and going off onto a social issue.

  • Only because greedy bastards are pocketing all the budget.
    But of course those bastards don't need 911, they have their private service.

    But fuck I hope some day they need 911 and it takes Paramedics 1 hour to get there.

    • @MrRolLexus Yeah i see you blaming the people more then I do the government. When in reality any rational person can see these people are living in a system, we all are. Some people are at the top and some at the bottom. Something definetly has to change. Detroit used to be the powerhouse of the US, that and pittsburgh. This is fucking disgraceful.

  • Detroit is a giant black ghetto where nobody works and hence no taxes for city services.

  • Please read what I have to say friends. Detroit was once a city so strong that it would nearly rival the economy of many small European Countries in the 1940`s-1970`s. Detroit was very much the backbone of America in many ways. Since 1962 Detroit has been run by Democrats. It has simply been "D" ever since 1962 until today 2012. 50 Solid years of Democrats in power. Since 1974, every Mayor of Detroit has been Black. Detroit went from a powerhouse to the most dangerous city in America. More..

  • Oh well, at least they got their precious diversity.
    I wonder what would happen to EMS in Detroit if the state stopped receiving federal $.
