They switched from contract ems to traditional paramedics a few yrs ago. They had to start and ems operation from scratch and purchased a whole fleet a few years back, explains the large purchases over a relatively short period.

I think they do between 8000 and 9000 runs a year.

You are correct. Berwyn is a very busy dept. They average about 7000-9000 calls a year. The 2 ambos that are going to be replaced are 2010’s, 905 and the spare 910. The 2 new ones will go to 905 and 907, 907’s current rig will become the ready spare
