Here is goes as far as I can remember......
The following depts. are primary (i.e. get all 911 EMS calls in their district)...
Bellrose (Engine responds NCPD bus transports) Bellrose Terrace (same as Bellrose) Floral Park Ctr. (same as Bellrose) Floral Pk. FD Mineola Vac (primary Friday 5pm-Sunday 12AM) S. Floral Pk. FD Stewart Manor (Daul response with NCPD bus) Long Beach FD Point Lookout Lido FD Island Pk. FD E. Rockaway FD Lynbrook FD Malverne VAC (when in service if not NCPD covers) E. Williston FD (Engine responds NCPD transport) Alberston FD (Engine responds NCPD transport) RVC FD Oyster Bay FD E. Norwich FD (dual response with NCPD bus) Bayville FD (6p-6a dual reponse with NCPD bus other wise FD EMS is OOS)
Glenwood FD Locust Valley FD Seacliff FD Glen Cove EMS/VAC N. Merrick FD Seaford FD (6p-6a dual response wth NCPD bus all other time secondary)
Wantagh Levittown VAC (6pm-6am Mon-Fri 24hrs Sat & Sun) Port Washington FD Farmingdale FD (dual response with NCPD bus) S. Farmingdale FD (dual response with NCPD bus) Fllowing are secondary (after the NCPD primary bus to the area is on a call...)
Willy Pk. FD Roslyn FD Mineola VAC (when there not primary on weekends) Franklin Square FD Seaford FD (6a-6p)
Every one else is 3rd or 4th (has 3 or 4 county buses IFO them before they'll get a 911 EMS run) more or less...
The following DO NOT take 911 calls at all.....
Manhasset Lakeville FD (6a-6p Mon-Fri) Westbury FD E. Meadow FD
Hempstead FD and Freeport FD usually only go to 'forthwith' calls generated via 911, and of course all FD's with an ambulance will respond to EMS runs if you call them on their 7 digit #.....

I have that written for the Bellrose's & F. Pk. Ctr.
Willy Park will only go to those 2 depts you mention ONLY if 2353 assumming the call originates through 911. If the call comes over the 7 digit XXX-3300 # to NC Firecom Willy Park will go right away....
Wonder how the NCPD CB OPS keep this all straight?!?!

someone asked how CB ops keeps it all straight?
The E911 screens in Nassau besides showing all caller info, show the Primary, Secondary and sometimes third due ambulance for that address. It will also show the appropiate fire departments identifiers, like Merrick it would say - 640.
So for Roslyn for instance it might say (these #'s are not right) Prim- 2642 Second- 2644 Third - Roslyn 590

But if Roslyn is secondary as stated above, wouldn't primary be PD's 2366, then Roslyn's 561/5611?

I knew someone would ask that. If you re-read my post I put that as an example. I dont know what PD bus covers Roslyn, or whos 1st and 2nd due in that area. I was just trying to show you how the E911 screens are set up for the PD and FD operators to make their jobs a little easier

Roslyn is actually 3rd, 2366 and 2356 are the primary responders in the district. Everyone thought Roslyn Rescue was nuts getting an ambulance, but then they recieved a 2nd and it seemed to work out well, because some of the highlanders were riding also. But with all the turmoil going on between the 2 companies now it should make it interesting.

Sendthejob: To clear up a few points on your list: Wantagh-Levittown VAC isn't primary anymore. They dropped down to secondary since the start of 2004.
Albertson FD amb. service is provided by Williston Pk. who is secondary. When W.Pk. gets alerted, Albertson is toned out too, and responds with some sort of rescue truck, not an engine. In that area only E. Williston responds with the 14a as dual-response, not Albertson.
I understand the C.B. op's have a tough time keeping it all straight. They don't see the 911 screen mentioned above. Only the 911 receiving op. sees that, & uses it to know if FD is primary, to transfer the call to firecom. The radio console ops use a typewritten sheet for each pct. that shows the response order for each village name. Unfortunately, the NCPD doesn't understand that the fire districts are different than the village names. I think some others talked about that this week in the scanning forum - how you never know what FD might cover a certain area. Anyway it seems that a certain number of mistakes are made and sometimes they give a call to Firecom that is supposed to be a 14A response.

when a E911 call is transfered from PD to firecom, what screen does firecom see?

Post by bearcat3 on May 12, 2004 12:17:47 GMT -5
When a 911 oper. transfers the caller to Firecom, the same E911 screen appears on the Firecom oper's console.

Yes Gargamel, that is correct. rhc5928: I wondered about that "turmoil comment" too. I thought that the 2 companies are doin' pretty well nowadays aren't they? I know that Highlands now runs a fly car along with Rescue on amb calls, right? And I also heard that a few weeks ago, one day when Rescue Co. was out-of-service for a few hours that Highlands actually ran their ambulance for them. Well anyone who knows Roslyn history must realize that things have come along way, since years ago.

Highlands co. runs one of rescue's buses out of highlands sta-2,and a fly car.Rescue runs a bus out of RR station 2 and a fly car.Both ambulance's are owned by RRFD.As for the turmoil,just the regular b/s with a few people,but both co's still work well togeather and will continue to so.

5928: that's interesting that a Rescue Co. ambulance is quartered in one of your stations. Good to see the 2 companies working well together nowadays. It must be a changed Roslyn FD from years ago. Also, on a different topic, for those interested in the independent ambulance corps' around the County: I hear the Wantagh-Levittown VAC has gone back to being primary ambulance at night and on weekends. They had been primary for years, but they dropped down to secondary since the first of 2004.

Wantagh-Levittown only pulled out of primary for a 90 day period, and has been back primary for a few weeks now. They are primary from 7PM to 6AM weekdays, and from 7PM friday thru 6AM monday.

Roslyn is secondary to ems calls in their district....2356 only responds if roslyn is unable to get out or if specially requested by the FD....

Williston Park is 1st due when FireCom is called - in WP, EW + Albertson. and 2nd or 3rd due when 14-A's are unavailable waiting for that overturn. EW & Albertson FD's send what looks like an ambulance (805 / 812) as a 1st response unit that cannot transport. This sometimes confuses PO's who have cancelled PD ambulances when seeing these ambulances that aren't really ambulances. EW gets alerted with NCPD ambulances & from time to time FireCom alerts WP too, also adding to the confusion.

EW's ambulance that is not actually an ambulance was the former NHP 174B. It replaced an older former West Hempstead Ambulance that EW also bought used.
