This is an argument to use the proper terminology for EMS equipment, especially ambulances, to increase the professionalism of our industry.

Tell & Sell Your Story
The narrative portion is often what "makes or breaks" your application. Luckily, you can craft an effective narrative by answering four simple questions.
Editor's Foreword

The Ultimate Grant Resource

AFG, SAFER and Fire Prevention & Safety grants can help departments fund apparatus, equipment and staffing.
