grimmie 186 #26 September 10, 2008 The EMS/paramedic integration has both helped and hurt the American fire service. Lot's of "bed pan commandos" (paramedics) get hired because of their medic cert. As the fire service has moved towards EMS as it's bread and butter the fire training has taken a back seat. Some departments like Cal Fire still do widland and structure with minimal EMS.
