Ambulance 248 Becoming A246 Bariatric Ambulance
The Walkersville Volunteer Rescue Company is in the process of converting its older ambulance, A248, into bariatric unit. Bariatric ambulances feature special equipment to transport severely obese patients.
Over the next few weeks, the unit will get a new paint job. After its paint job, a special ramp and stretcher system will be installed in May.
The company hopes to have the unit in service by July 1st. When it goes into service as a bariatric unit, it will adopt the designation of A246.
