I worked in Vancouver on the downtown east side for 2 years and was always really impressed by VPD. I remember someone very high on meth trying to smash out our side window on the ambulance with a metal rod and we called for police urgently and I was really blown away at how quickly we had 4 cruisers pulling up surrounding us from every direction.... like seconds later. Vancouver Fire dept was always really great to work with too.
That’s awesome. Thanks for sharing your experiences! I have nothing but the utmost respect for the men and women who work in the DTES and deal with the daily craziness of this place so professionally.
Sorry that the medics were in a bad situation inside the ambulance. I was a emt for 15 years. I had a similar experiance with a patient. God bless all first responders and pray they all come home to their families after their shifts.
Tony Puntillo hey I am currently a student thinking of my future career, and I love medicine, human body, health. I’m just wondering is EMT an interesting career? Thanks.
@@MadCuzUBroke I've went on plenty of ride alongs with BCAS and and my local fire departments medics, and I can say that being an EMT is a tough, but also brilliant career, definitely someone that I really want to do.
So in the States, our officers typically park and leave their lights on; especially when parking in the street. I noticed that these VC officers turned them off on arrival. Is that just SOP?
John Hall Turning the lights off is definitely a typical move for VPD. They are also often seen using lights and sirens in short ‘bursts’ when responding, rather than keeping them on all the way. I’m not sure why exactly they do this, but since I’ve seen it so often I do think it is SOP here. That being said they usually do leave their lights on whenever they are obstructing traffic in any way.
@Streamer LX4 This is based on the state, actually. For instance, New York uses red for police, fire, and EMS. In some other states, they use red and blue for all vehicles. There's a unique history behind the requirements for emergency vehicle marking per-state. California, for instance, requires a "steady red" to be forward-facing on all emergency vehicles.
Streamer LX4 It’s not all the same all over North America. Traditionally the standard for police lights is red/blue/white and red/white/amber for fire and EMS. However it’s a choice for departments and States/ Provinces, wherever laws allow. Some police departments use all blue lights, some use all red, other places use blue and red for the fire department... It really depends. Overall I think blue white and red is the most visible (in combination) for all emergency vehicles, but all blue would also be good.
Some agencies here in California do the same thing yeah the ambulance already had its lights on so really no need for all the emergency lights to be on fire department here does the same if not needed.
My wife is a Paramedic in Canada. In July 2018, she was attacked by a crack addict who became violent. She was kicked in the head, and suffered her 3rd concussion in 19 years on the job. She is still off dealing with headaches and memory loss.
I’m sorry to hear about that... Emergency services should never have to face violence. Sadly the reality is that paramedics are having to endure a lot more than they used to. This is becoming a problem around the world and I hope people will become more aware of it.
Sorry to hear. My career as a paramedic came to an abrupt end after a 2 storey fall. No violence on that occasion but had been at the sharp end of more used syringes, knives and other weapons than I care to remember. I sincerely hope two years on that she's back to work. It's a real shock when your dream career suddenly ends unplanned.
@@doncoleman4938 I'm glad you're still alive. You're a lucky man. My wife has been back to work since early 2019. She is now working as an Acting Supervisor
Nice catches! Great to see VPD's fast response to their fellow first response colleagues! As a paramedic student studying in Toronto, we were shown plenty of these possible incidents where you call police, and let them handle the guy while we medics sit back and have a beer (nah). I noticed that VPD cars often leave their lights off. In my school, that's actually typical practice, unless you're in heavy and fast traffic. The reason for this (at least in Toronto) is by having your lights on, you could attract large amounts of unwanted attention, like snoopy bystanders with their phones out, the media wanting to get a story, or anyone that wants to bother you.
SnipballTheBestBall Thank you! It’s always nice when different agencies work well together. Unfortunately that’s the only thing paramedics can do in some of these situations. Nobody deserves to be in danger while working, but sadly levels of violence towards first responders are on the rise. Interesting information on why they leave the lights off. That’s actually the most plausible explanation I have heard so far! I’m thinking that’s the reason, because in the age of smartphones it can be quite disruptive to draw too much attention to a scene... Good luck with the studies btw! :)
„Let’s go downtown, Tim!“ - „No, let’s just wait another 20 minutes...“ Well, guess you were right 🤣 That was one amazing last day of such a cool summertime!
Haha I seem to have an instinct for these moments (sometimes)... 😆👍🏼 I’m quite glad we waited, the whole timing was quite good, even catching the police escort at the perfect spot in the end 😍
I think all services did an excellent job considering the situation!! It does not take long for any situation to go sideways and I know from personal experience that the quick response times to situations like these are crucial, and if you're in the back of an ambulance and your patient is attacking you, it's crucial to try to restrain your patient because there's so many thing that the patient can use to harm you and it's in situations like these where panic buttons come in handy.
Moscow 112/911 Thank you!! :D Yes I think everyone was ok, the police showed up very quickly and the situation seemed mostly under control after a few minutes. 👍🏼
Awesome video man!! You are so lucky to catch this and the ambulance escort!!! It was kind of weird for me to see the BCAS go opposite lane. If I caught that, I am gonna be so happy that I will run all the way to Burnaby 😂
Thanks mate! :D Haha sometimes you just have a feeling and are in the right place at the right time... (but I’m not always this lucky lol). Oh BCAS responds in the opposite lane all the time, especially on Broadway in Vancouver to avoid traffic jams.
Most of these responses in this part of East Vancouver are drug overdoses. Where I work, the issues with homeless people & drug addiction & overdoses is out of control!
Good to see BCAS in action. Amongst the best EMS services in North America. Still have a little way to go to catch up with some other countries, but they're getting there. US services take note!!
Thanks for the comment! I’m not an expert on how most North American emergency services compare (except for a few in Washington State perhaps), but I’ve always seen BCAS as being quite professional and friendly. Another very professional service I can think of is King County Medic One.
@@TGGGlobalEmergencyResponses Yea it is. My EMS instructor told me a similar story that happened to him. A drugged up man in their ambulance fought for 20 minutes straight, and the fire fighters came to help and still couldnt get the dude under control. Eventually he snapped out of the trance but its still scary.
So what they were doing to the patient when the two police officers went inside the ambulance with the two back doors open? Wow was the patient arrest at all? Great work I couldn't stand there for that long. But wow it took awhile to settle him/her down.
The police would mainly be there to help restrain the patient and make sure the paramedics are safe. If a person becomes violent it would be the job of the police to control them, before the medics can continue treatment. The paramedic specialist most likely arrived to sedate the patient in oder to make the transport safer. It’s hard to tell if anyone was arrested, but I would say that at least one police officer rode along inside the ambulance, while another officer followed in the patrol car on the way to the hospital.
Dude you captured a ultra rare Porsche Cayenne Transsyberia at the 0:51 second mark, only 600 were ever made. Also sweet video on the VC police response.
Sorry to kill your buzz but it is Vancouver so there was probably a new driver sign on the back and its probably already been totalled and mom and dad probably already bought them a new car.
Firstly, BC Ambulance Paramedics were in charge of the call. As they are for all medical calls in BC. Van Fire was assisting them. Not the other way around. Second, there is no such thing as "Fire Medics". They are simply first responders. Just as with any other fire department in BC. Vancouver fire department has chosen to try and promote themselves by using misleading terminology on their vehicles. It's actually written as "Fire/Medic".
Filming VFRS would be so much more awesome if they had Q sirens. However I do understand why they choose not to use them. When you have such a big fleet of trucks (and already have a more than effective electronic siren) you can save on costs for the maintenance of Q sirens and invest the money in more crucial things.
I understand the cost savings. But Montreal Fire makes it a point to have Qs on all their trucks and it's sexy as hell! It's just too bad, I know Toronto and Ottawa don't have Qs either.
It’s a Code 3 siren as far as I know, but does sound very similar to Hong Kong sirens. The VPD yelp tone sounds almost exactly the same as HKFSD ambulances... 😄
extremely cool catch timur.some ppl in in the dtes r so crazy at times due 2 drugs n booze or whatever else they can find 2 abuse. ive been in locked car driving in that area yrs ago. they walk like zombies right in front of ur car. we almost hit a guy wearing dark clothes. plz b very careful
Thank you very much Marlene! Yes I know, it can be a sad area, but honestly I’ve spent a lot of time there and the way I see it you won’t find trouble there unless you’re looking for it...

000 Responses Yes, attacks on paramedics are on the increase. I've had 2 guns, 3 knives, and a few needles pulled on me (Brisbane) over the years. Lost count of the number of bites and spits. We administer droperidol to violent patients which has been a great help. There will come a time when tasers will become standard.
Could have been yes, did appear to be a mental health emergency of some sort. However I don’t want to speculate too much about these things, the video is mostly about the vehicles of course.
technocardy No, my viewers are free to discuss whatever they like. As a channel about emergency vehicles I am not personally going to speculate about patients, suspects, crimes, motives etc. I only provide factual information about what I saw happening, nothing more.
"Paramedics arrived to assist Firefighters"????????????????? Uh not. Fire departments assist Paramedics. Paramedics are the only service that has the legislated statutory responsibility for responding to medical emergencies in BC. Fire Depts. choose to assist. They are not required to by law.
Um...did you READ the description??? The patient was located meters away from the fire station, so pedestrians alerted firefighters to the patient and they chose to approach him. They were later assisted by paramedics, who still had to respond to the scene. So yes, the paramedics arrived to assist firefighters. I am well aware of all the regular procedures, thanks a lot.
You realize you just sound like some insecure paramedic who is either jealous of Vancouver Fire, or just needs to criticize everything to make yourself feel important. Why the multiple negative comments? Vancouver Fire and BCAS have a great working relationship. Each knows their roles in the different types of calls we do together and we have each other's backs. I am a paramedic in Van and I have never had an issue with them stepping on my toes or interfering with the patient care side of things. They are nothing but helpful when I work with them.
