The Harrison life squad captain explains emergency transfers to Providence Ambulatory Care Center on New Haven Road and when non emergency transfers require private ambulances. If a non emergency transfer is needed the three crew members go off duty, delaying other calls. In emergencies the squad can still move patients to needed hospitals after stabilization. Some patients are sent to other hospitals by request or based on injury type. Army Pvt. Scott E. Taylor arrives for duty in Bad Kissingen West Germany after serving at Fort Sill.
