Little follow-up to this, while this is correct and it weeks old, St. Clair's agreed to come back to Harrison for 90 days, after that it's unknown what will happen, I agree with the author St Mike / Mobile Health had to go. I witnessed them walk a patient with a major head injury to the ambulance, and they had no as in zero idea where anything was in town, with it being normal if they had a call on one end of town, they responded to the opposite end, thats for posting.

Thanks... I wasn't made aware of it until last night when we heard them on the radio. Nevertheless, we will see what happens. Not surprised that NJMHC cannot find their own way around, nothing new. I've heard plenty of problems of their patient care over the years.. Cannot believe they have made it this far.

Most of us in EMS have the same thinking, and I believe Harrison was warned before signing on with NJMHC.

What's even funnier is St Mikes, St Mary's (Passaic), and Both St. Clare's are all owned by Prime Healthcare. The fact that St Mikes started their own via NJMHC and didn't just let an already established service ran by their own agency bid for them is absurd.

I agree... There's so many issues with that alone... No logic or common sense. Kinda crazy if you ask me.
