Tell me you’re a volunteer without telling me you’re a volunteer.
Well this is our ambulance.
Our department (RVFD Riverton Volunteer Fire Department) here in Wyoming doesn't run ambulances. It's weird to see a volunteer ambulance service.
@@buzman1985 bruh it's Wyoming
@@braydensims7018 I just don’t understand fire based ambulances. Moved to new town, fire department doesn’t do a corn pickin thing, but since they run the ambulance, they’re a career department. GET LOST!
I always am rushing out of my house, and I won’t even get paid my guy
Nice to see a fully volunteer EMS service still in operation! I ran with a fully volunteer service in NJ in the early 80’s and now live in Texas. I didn’t know NJ still had such organizations - glad to see it!
There are a lot of fully volunteer stations.
They took Christmas trees to the next level
Oh ambulance! Oh ambulance! How lovely are your lights.
Christmas tree? Looks more like a Christmas themed city condensed into a box!
The city or vehicle
@@srh0822sh vehicles. Christmas tree is a term referring to an absurd amount of lights on an emergency vehicle
"Hey, Chief, there's a light out on the rig!"
Which one? There's like fifty.
@@braydensims7018, that's my point! ;-)
Ahh shit here we go again
@@MrTenor-ch5gs It was C Shift
@@braydensims7018 it’s always C shift
-signed, C Shift
This is my favorite station cribs of all time / 100% EMS service without billing! If you hear crying from paid services, so them this video! Teaneck / my heros!
I lived in Teaneck during the 1950s & 60s and walked by that place every day on the way to work.
That’s awesome!
Not gonna lie, the Ambulance house blew me away.
Kudos to them for running such a well oiled outfit
They really have it down. We were there during a shift change and probably saw 20 volunteers come through! They really know how to get and keep volunteers
They should of done one of their famous 3 back to back calls while you were there they ride heavy too most of the time 3 to 4 members on a rig
@@HeroesNextDoor YES TVAC HAS BEEN DOING IT RIGHT FOR YEARS! ,its been "THE THING TO DO" for every aspiring teenager in teneck for years if you live, or board going to school there , as you saw those kids were there in the video, growing up 20 minutes away and knowing some guys that volunteer there and neighboring towns, they definitely do capitalize in comradery and try to make tvac as friendly as possible!
I Expected those ambulances to be the size of a normal ambulance, but HOLY COW Those things are huge.
It depends what role they play. Most ambulances are much smaller.
One thing is clear as the amen in the church, their ambulances are not to be overlooked and are clearly visible from other rescue services!
Bravo 👏🏻 to a true red white and blue 🇺🇸 volunteers. Your station is what I grew up with for my first 40 years of service, since 1970. Keep up your FABULOUS WORK👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
150,000 miles is a milestone? 100,000 miles is a lot? Holy shit. In Cleveland, OH 60% of our FRONTLINE rigs are over 300,000 miles. And we have like 33 rigs, 25 are frontline.
interesting how the North East area still has such a strong sense of volunteerism
Being from NZ. I still can't believe how HUGE their ambulances are 😂
Oh, these are the largest kind, most ambulances are smaller.
@@avatarcayo5293 yeah fhese are the biggest I've ever seen. you're right when you say they're small. some can be tiny too
@@emirachelnatalie3397 Yeah, it really just depends on your location and what role they fulfill. Most ambulances are just pickup trucks modified with the ambulance body.
@@avatarcayo5293 ahhh that's interesting now that you mention that haha
avatarcayo most in my area look like these in the video
I'm sure the ambulances are a huge part of the high number of vollies. The ambulances are awesome.
Yeah they have some pretty cool ambulances
What a fantastic service provided by selfless members going above and beyond to help other's. Keep up the great work.
Really don’t like the amount of lights on the rigs, but these folks provide an amazing service to their community.
Sorry... The ambulances aren't vampire friendly lol jk.
Richard williams
More lights = way safer
@@zfortenb1237 not always, sometimes too many emergency lights can be a distraction and even dazzle drivers approaching an accident scene, especially in dark or low light conditions. There’s a reason not every ambulance or fire truck around the country has this many lights on it.
@@zfortenb1237 not so sure about that, sometimes less is more. Too many lights that are too bright can be just as dangerous as not having any.
Here in the Borough of Stanhope around eh, 50 miles away from Teaneck, the Squad’s building was originally behind the funeral home until 1970 when a new building was built for the ambulances. This year they’re celebrating their 50th anniversary. They’ve been volunteer since day one and when they get a call, you’ll always see a car come down Main Street doin 40, turn up the long driveway, then down comes an ambulance.
Edit: if any of the SNALAC guys are reading this, you know I’ve always talked highly of you guys, I’ll be watching when you leave for as long as I can.
They could probably pay members if they didn’t blow their budget on lights
Lol
Considering they get 3 ambulances out the door 24/7 with all volunteers I don’t think they need paid staff
They don’t want to pay them they volunteer for it
I loved running as a volunteer EMT - been doing it since 1982. Started in Edison NJ.
🤣🤣
I’m a proud volly FF here in jersey thanks for coming down to showcase one of the EMS departments in this state
We had a great time hanging out with everyone down there!
Thank you for you service 👏💪🇬🇧
The fun thing about Teaneck ambulance service is that the ambulances sound like fire trucks.
That’s because they got fire truck sirens installed.
@@jackstailers3248 I know that.
Good ol Federal Signal Q siren.
I love their ambulances, especially their lights !
Awesome tour, thank you! Teaneck is doing it right, especially when getting AND keeping Volunteers has become such a challenge...
Here's my take on the Rockin around the Christmas tree song: Driving around in an ambulance on my way to a heart attack , everyone hear the wail and yelp then get outta my way.
You will see my lights and hear me yell but don't you be alarmed.🤣😋
😂😂😂
And here's mine:
Drivin' around in an ambulance,
on my way to a heart attack.
Everyone sees my wall of lights
and they just jump right back.
See my lights and hear my siren,
But guess what kids..?!
We are hii-rin'!
That map system is awesome. Genius solution before tech came along!
Yeah that was a game changer for the time!
it wasn't to far before tech, it has a bar code reader
That’s a lot of lights
Damn their ambulance's are colossal. The lights are even extreme.
LOL learning how to pump gas !!
Nice bulding And rigs
Love the station. Guy's and girls are doing a great job.
That ambulance is the definition of beaury
Great video yet again learned a little more about Teaneck ambulance corps
Glad you liked it, thanks for watching!
Hope they keep the 89 GMC as a spare/reserve. It's a beaut!
They will turn it into a parade piece
I remember seeing that ambulance in another video a while back and all though was.
"Wow, they convered an Armored Car into a ambulance?"
I saw it in nyc one time so cool
I love you these guys! The GMC is my Favorite!
What an amazing station, a great example of being innovative from adjusting their apparatuses to be more visible to inviting a system of finding an address. Kudos
Volunteer Medics are hard to find, it's not easy to have to work and figure out how to get,keep,and use your EMT (all levels). Good thing people are there to do it, alot of ppl depend on that service.
Medics are next to impossible emts are a little easier but volunteers are down all across the country
20 minutes outside New York? It is 4 miles from Teaneck to New York City on Route 4 to the George Washington Bridge. It is less than an 8 minute drive non rush hour traffic. TVAC was my first squad.
I saw a few videos of people getting nice catches of these Christmas tree trucks. Happy to see them all up close now 🥳
If you haven’t seen it yet, check out the inside of the truck on our other video. We take a tour of their 1989 gmc ambulance
Outstanding, an ambulance with a Q…
Here in Germany we have also volunteer paramedics. But often they are professionals and get on call, when you have a huge number of patient or calls and their function is to get on the Back up ambulances to stand by available for calling.
I love how they care about their volunteers!
Ole school gmc is awesome.
Amazing video as always!!
I love this videos about this EMS stations!
They are amazing!
Personally I like this EMS stations rather than Fire Stations, so, please, could you record more videos about them?
Regards from Spain, where we don't have that kind of stations.
Keep up this amazing job 👍👍👍
Thanks for watching! We will definitely be bringing more ems stations!
Damn...that homemade mapping system is on point! That’s awesome.
Yeah it was awesome! It’s crazy that one of their members came up with it!
@@HeroesNextDoor so much pride when you come up with your own ways of making things work better. Especially for a volley dept. where every dollar expenses is important, so when you can DIY it’s great.
I want to know how they made that cuz that was really cool
He called it "pre-technology", but it actually contains a lot of technology!
100,000 miles a lot for an ambulance?! Come to the UK where we have vehicles doing 400,000 miles before they get replaced!
Yeah but remember their coverage area was 2-4 square miles.
Awesome station! Love the trucks! Keep it up!
Thanks for watching! They have a great group of volunteers there!
@@HeroesNextDoor yes they do! volunteers really do deserve a lot more respect then they do now.
Do they even cause mass accidents? I would imagine cross one of those ambulances while driving at night and don’t see a sh*t 😂
Those ambulances are huge, we just use modified Ford transits in Australia. They look like modified tipper trucks.
“Learned how to pump gas”
This channel is the best!
Thank you. Much more to come
Do not get rid of that 89. Thats awesome
This looks like a pretty cool station.
When you walked into the room with the ping pong table I thought for a minute that it was the bay
Very interesting tour! It's fantastic to see how they operate and maintain their building and equipment! Huge respect for their service and innovations! 🙂
20:18 + following seconds when you talk about mileage of the trucks. Isn't 100,000 - 200,000 miles a normal mileage number that any other ambulance type also reaches? From what I know medium duty ambulances can easily reach 400,000 +++ miles. Of course the overall age of those trucks needs to be considered too.
Yeah, they definitely are not super high mileage. Since their coverage area is only 7 square miles they do not have to drive very far
The primary hospital they transport to is less then a mile away and the trauma center is just under 2 miles. Not a lot of distance to go
Think of it this way - 150,000 miles is like 75,000 calls!

I'm 30 years old. I'd drive Toddler 1. lol
Hahaha
Yessir 😊😊
Nice video dang 140 active volunteers
Yeah, they had a shift change while we were there, we probably saw 15 or 20 of their volunteers when we were there
Ok. Can you tour my fire station. I dont know if their doing tours but Westfield fire dept
@@HeroesNextDoor massachusetts
@@HeroesNextDoor so they put like 7 people on a truck? How much hillbilly is that? Clown car 1 responding.
@@MoparGuy1625 the crew size is generally 4, 2 regular members and 2 probationary. During the day there are usually 2 crews in the building.
That voice crack on highway at 14:31 lmao
🤣😂😉
Personally I like the amount of lights on there trucks, I think it's interesting.
I don't really like it, it's way to much
Man im gonna miss Medic 73!
Why what’s going to happen to it? Is it going to be scraped?
@@majortom4300 I think it will be soon out of service because of the new ambo.
@@majortom4300 I hope not, I just heard they are going to be replacing it, they ordered a new ambulance. Hope they put it on display in a museum or something similiar
@@Code3Indiana I would like to know as well
even if they use it for big car wrecks because it can handle 3 patience
15 and a half?! Have to give those kids PTSD young I take it
First! Love your content HND. Keep it up.
Thing is nobody cares if your first and btw you not first
Thanks for watching!
That is a lot of people for volunteer wow
In town
I'am Your Newest Subscribers Great Videos
Thanks for subscribing!
nice btw can you try to go to south orange rescue squad in nj
Do a station cribs in apopka because i know your a fan of rosenbauer fire trucks and station 1 has a garage across the street check them out
“Well In my 10 months in the department I learned how to fill up the ambulance with gasoline”
Those ambulances got enough lights on them geez
You should try to visit carman fire department in Rotterdam New York
You should come to Christian Pennsylvania station 52
Email us contact information, and we will try to get it done.
@@HeroesNextDoor what is your email
@@zachhall52 read channel description
Damn, now they need to swing by and vist us in Reno.
I would love if they visited us at Remsa
@@Lonedrummer1221 Yea, Y'all have been slammed tonight.
@@Lonedrummer1221 Also, what y'all thinking of them new Vanbulances?
@@dawsont933 all of us hate them 😂 there won’t be anymore new ones though thankfully
@@Lonedrummer1221 Good, I saw a few months back V50 got a new chassis, but the same box, I think that's what should keep happening, there's just not enough room for storage and work in the vans.
You guys should make a Discord Server so people can come and hangout, chit chat and show off different photos or videos of other rigs and equipment.
Its free to setup and operate. If you have any questions, i would be more than willing to assist however possible. :)
Hope you guys have a great weekend
+1 to that idea! 😄 Sounds interesting to have a virtual Teaneck ambulance Discord hangout where people can talk about EMS or specifically about Teaneck Ambulance Corps. They could also use it for virtual training, meetings and these things. Guess that could be another way to get in touch with people as well as new volunteers. I also think that this could even contribute to a few more donations (theoretically from people all over the world).
That’s a pretty good idea! We have a Facebook group, but a discord would be cool too
Can you do Oceanside CA fire departments especially station 7
Sick
Are those ambulances have federal Q sirens like a firetruck?
hey tbh u need to do Fairlawn Ambulance Corp in Fairlawn Nj
the volunteers: we need more money for a new ambulbence Them at the at the same time; we are adidcted to lights, more lighst
Do Morristown New Jersey fire department
Does that mean you guys are getting rid of the GMC please tell me you guys are going to keep it or send it to an ambulance museum it would be extremely disappointing to see the awesome old Emergency Vehicles go to the wreckers because I sure as hell buy that old GMC if I had the money for it
They are keeping it for parades
What 90's rescue show was TEANECK featured on ??
Rescue 911 ??
Emergency call?
I think we have a spy in our facebook group. Really odd how we were putting the guy in the video on blast and then boom a few days later a video about his dept
Question ? So do the volunteers can give people medicine ? And shots with medicine in it ?
They can give meds that are under their scope of practice
Can you do Pasco County
Need to send us the official invite to make that happen
Are these paramedics cross-staffed as firefighters as well, or are they just paramedics
These are all EMTs only, the paramedic comes from the hospital and fire from another department
@@HeroesNextDoor Oh ok. Thank you!
Hey what’s the name of the song in the background ?
Just curious, what do they do for ALS? Fly medic?
ALS is provided by hospital paramedics in New Jersey.
Chase cars Aka Fly medic and Englewood Health Als 213 211 are transport capable unit usually chase the Teaneck rig’s Holy Name in Teaneck has chase cars as doe Hackensack Meridan
Why do the ambulances have so many lights?
Check out this video, we talk about it in this video: th-cam.com/video/sIbui5em_g8/w-d-xo.html
W..wait a second, what do you mean by 100% funded of of donations? Doesn't the city, country, state etc. fund EMS and fire services in the US?
Nope they get donations from the transports IF they choose to pay and they do multiple fund raisers during the year.
@@HeroesNextDoor So there is no funding through taxes? That's crazy, but if its working, it's working I guess.
Correct, they get no funding from taxes
Sir, if you're ever in Germany hmu I'll show you some niiiice stations :-)
We hope to make it out there one day!
the price of cars?
You can argue fire with me, I guess if getting paid isn't an option in your area okay go be a volly FF but imagine being a volly in EMS 😆😆😆
They dont restock supplies after every call at the hospital?
Most ambulances don't, probably unless they belong to the specific hospital they are at.
@@eriksand9262 im in the chicago area and just about all ambulances restock at the hospital they drop off at. The hospitals dont own any of the 911 ambos here.
Why does the host wear a uniform (without an affiliation patch, no less)? Why not just regular clothing?
We were just getting started and I’m comfortable in uniform. I have served for 26 years. Thought it was most professional. But we are looking at other options. AKA an online store. Watchheroesnextdoor.com. What would you like me to wear and what would you buy to support us?
Why is it so hard to keep a fleet consistent?
Hello
I have been in volunteer emergency services and I get it however I have to wonder WHY with such a high population does not have paid service. We have a population of 14000 and two paid crews for Ambo's
Australia
me being from Germany seing this ambulances well yeah we have a law in germany that we are not allowed to have more then two lightbars and two front flashers and two rear flashers
Are fire department is legit a shed
