Trying to listen to Orange EMS calls

[motorman105]

Orange,CT doesn’t have it’s own EMS and uses AMR. Is there a particular South Central CMED channel for EMS calls in Orange?
Thanks!

Start with the AMR dispatch frequency. 453.025..It's bang'n 24/7.
Then go to CMED channels (such as they are in its present iteration) and look for the med channels for YNNH and if I'm not mistaken, the patch for Milford and Griffin. The location and nature of the event in town determine which facility the transport will be made.
But, if AMR dispatches to PD107 either with the "fly car" or otherwise, it'll be on 453.025.

From time to time the fly car will sign on with NorthWest Public Safety on Med-102 but I also hear them on Med 6 going to YNHH/HSR

The medic fly car is dispatched on the Orange PD channel and responds on that channel. You do hear them on the AMR New haven channel but it normally its after they are on scene and asking about the incoming transport ambulance
The Woodbridge medic is the same, dispatched on the Woodbridge PD channel and stays on it. If they go for an intercept in Bethany they will come up on Med-92.

They are actually using Med-92..Northwest C-Med has a permeant patch between Med-1 Southbury, Med-9 Watertown, Med-10 Danbury, Med-92 Seymour and Med-102 Meriden

Thanks so much!
I’ll give Orange PD a call later and ask them to go unencrypted so we can all listen to the fly car getting dispatched!😂😂😂😂
BTW are Orange PD Units first responders?

Here ya go:

453.025 DPL 115 AMR New Haven Dispatch
463.125 PL 167.9 Med 6, Yale patches
462.975 PL 167.9 Med 10 ( used for medical direction in the NHVN area to Yale or St Raphael)
463.1125 PL 123.0 Med-52, Milford Hospital patches
463.0875 PL 192.8 Med 42, Griffin Hospital patches
462.9625 Med 92 ( used to sign on to request a patch to Griffin and other Waterbury area hospitals)

That should get you going....

Yes the Orange PD are the R-1 responders in Orange. BUT they also dispatch out OVFD if the PD is all tied up

OVFD is not an R-1 service if I remember correctly, so they would only go to aid in a lift assist when requested.

Correct. We were always the first responders and...we shall always remains as such unless there is a paid FD (Horrors! Perish the thought!) or there is a full time fly car in town. It's sometimes yes and sometimes no. Yes, I do remember clearing the throat passage on an individual (gagging on his teeth) at an MVA on #34 between Orange Ctr. and Racebrook) and having the individual projectile vomit into my face. First responder? You do what you have to do. Although I disagree with OPD following suit with Milford and WHPD with their routine communications...we made fun of Woodbridge PD when they had PD101 on the old (remember that?) 45.24 frequency.

OVFD does get dispatched out by OPD for medicals when all of their cars are tied up and the Fly car is unavailable

OPD is the R1 but there is an agreement in the Town that OVFD will get dispatched when all of the PD units are tied up and the fly car is not available
