So yesterday we got to take not one but TWO Ambulance rides :thumbsdown: One from my house to a hospital then a transfer from that hospital to another hospital- Ride from home to hospital (Ambulance was called for my son age 3) the firefighter/EMTs told me to grab the carseat out of my car (It was not an "emergency" at that point but he still needed to go to the hospital and I was not comfortable driving him) they "installed" his MA in the capt chair that had a really crappy old lap only belt that would not stay tight. The chair itself was also rear-facing.. During the second ride (transfer non-emergency) they actually had a 5-pt harness they attached to the stretcher and buckled him in.. that Ambulance actually had a infant bucket car seat installed in it too (on the sideways facing bench) and the driver was HORRIBLE! :thumbsdown: my mom was behind us and was amazed we didn't crash it makes me wonder what would have happen had we crashed with my son 1) in a carseat that was NOT installed properly or 2) on the 5-pt stretcher buckle thingy (that was not tight at all due to the fact he had to have EKG wires hooked up the whole time)
He is fine btw he just likes to turn blue and scare the bejeezes out of me, apparently
