    Could anyone here tell me what Unit in Dublin has best vehicle / equipment

    Or alternatively

    Are there any new Units that have been set up who could do with an experienced EMT

    Cheers

    Whilst most units will be welcoming you may want to rethink your approach as to why you are volunteering. Is it just to be seen out and about in the 'best vehicle'

    A unit might be reluctant to invest time and money in you and then when you see a a unit with a newer asset you're gone for dust.

    Hopefully that isn't the case.

    Well I don't know how it works elsewhere but within Dublin, there's no "unit with the best vehicles/equipment" as the ambulances are shared between the units.

    Any unit would be happy with a new EMT, most units have similar equipment/training.

    Thanks bobby thats all I needed to know.

    @limericklad if i was joining a unit for just the best equipment i wouldnt have asked if theres any new units who could do with an emt

    Anyways, am thinking either Blanchardstown, Finglas, Santry or Drumcondra anyone any recommendations?
