Emergency! 720p Torrent

This series features the adventures of the paramedics of Los Angeles County Fire Dept. Station 51, John Gage and Roy Desoto. Together, they respond to emergencies ranging from false alarms to major disasters. As at this time, the Paramedic program, which is designed to keep emergency patients alive long enough to get to medical facilities, is still a recent service, the paramedics must be guided by licensed medical personnel through radio contact on site. This is where the staff of Rampart Hospital come in with Doctors Brackett and Early as well as Head Nurse McCall providing the necessary instructions for the paramedics to do their jobs. In addition to that, we see the work of the medical staff on their own as deal with the medical problems they encounter.
The creme of Jack Webb action series ran 6 seasons from 1972-1979, inspired by CA legislation signed by Gov. Ronald Reagan on July 14, 1970. The new law paved the way for creation of firefighter paramedic programs all over California. This series showcases the Los Angeles model and the emerging specialty of Emergency Hospital Medicine. In Los Angeles, firefighters train to certify as FF-PM, employed through the L.A. County Fire Department. The new Station 51 has one full-size Engine and a smaller Squad which carries state of the art equipment used by the FF-PMs. This includes a mobile radio and portable EKG machine which allows them contact and transmit information to and from the field to ER specialists at hospitals like Rampart General. There are spectacular rescues and more mundane runs; prompt treatment in the field by FF-PMs keeps a large number of patients alive long enough to reach a hospital. At Rampart, teams of skilled professionals provide appropriate medical care to the patients transported by Squad 51 and other FF-PMs. A close friendship evolves between the Squad 51 FF-PMs and the Rampart emergency team. The FF-PM mantra: "take it easy" is born.
First of all, this is not a show for everyone. Even the actors have admitted in interviews that the acting requirement was minimal. I, personally, love every minute of it and watch it all the time. Yet, I understand why it's not everyone's bag. Now, that being said, this show was the spring board for paramedicine in the United States and is widely credited for it's importance in shaping the emergency services we have (and maybe take for granted) today. The rescues were all written from actual rescues at stations across the country or were adapted drills. I also find it interesting to watch, season to season, how procedures and equipment changed so rapidly to accommodate the times. It's a great little piece of history wrapped in silly good fun. I encourage anyone to give it a try, if you don't already know of its awesomeness.
I religiously watched this show as a child, played the roles with my friends and dreamed that someday I would be a firefighter/EMT. I never seemed to realize that I would live out that dream as a career right up until I started the job. If the creators of that show only knew how far ahead of their time they were. I was glad to see it was on TvLand for a short time and would love to see it come back. My crew just ordered the DVD's. Can't wait for them to arrive. I still kick myself for not saving all of the memorabilia that I had from back then, but who knew!! It is also amazing that the antics that went on in that station, still go on today. Some of the crazy meals too. Keep safe out there. And by the way, according to Johnny's quote about the stations without poles, my station does not have a pole.....
