Hands On: Product Reviews from Street Crews

Street Crews reveiwed the AmbuBus (Bus Stretcher Conversion Kit), which they refer to here as a Mass Casualty Incident (MCI) Bus. Here's what they had to say:

"Mass casualty transport brings to mind lines of ambulances moving patients from a disaster scene to area hospitals. Recent natural disasters, such as the tornado in Joplin Mo., have demonstrated the need for resources to evacuate entire hospitals that have been damaged. The largest expense for this type of resource is the specialty vehicle chassis, which often has to be custom built to handle the number of patients desired. The No Notice AmbuBus from First Line Technology converts a standard school bus to a transport-capable vehicle that can accomodate 18 patients, six operators and their meidcal support equipment. Because this is a palletized, bolt-on conversion, it's also reconfigurable in the field and transferable in the event of vehicle malfunction."
