    NOT E/O agrees to this!
    From Goodtherapy.org:
    “Can Psychopathy Be Treated?
    Professionals in the field often disagree on whether psychopathy is a condition that can be treated. Many believe no therapy or medication can fundamentally change the brains of those with psychopathy, but others believe there are techniques that can be effective in reducing antisocial behaviors, especially when an individual recognizes these behaviors and chooses to seek help.”

    The research found that the only Volly systems that worked was like in Balto. County, MD.
    When a 911 EMS call came in, they dispatched the nearest fire station. A lot of EMS in this country is fire based. They gave the Vollys a few minutes to respond; and if they didn’t respond within the allotted time – they dispatched the nearest paid fire station.

    Stop with your lying!
    I said the article discusses volunteering in EMS, NOT Hatzola.

    “Regarding the exposure argument, the average EMT and Medic in the 911 system does not do this full time, most 12 hour shifts see an average of 2 calls.”

    Another lie; which 911 system are you talking about?
    In NJ most 911 handles many calls.
    In NYC, only the outer boroughs, might have less, but I doubt only 2 calls.

    “Furthermore, a lot of 911 systems are not multi-tiered which means that if the caller gives a nature that would require paramedics, the medics will be dispatched and stuck with the transport, this is a waste of time and resources,”

    Another misconception, it’s actually better to not have a tiered system.
    The best systems send only Medics to calls. So they do a lot of BLS – So what?!?

    I’m not interested in anyone’s help. I already posted why I came to this topic. I came to warn people – I know that in most cases – I won’t be believed. Most calls are not life-threating & the one’s that are – you don’t need EMS per se. Nowadays they have Automatic Defibs in shopping malls. They save lives. When s/o calls for EMS, they expect minumum care.
    I hardly seen them work, but in three cases I’ve seen, amongst other cases, they convinced the caller – no transport was needed. One of the cases ended up with a death.
    Btw, do you think I kept quiet about my family’s member’s death?
