Hi, I'm volunteer at Croce Verde Baggio in Milan (Baggio is not the football 
well-known player but a small town included in Milan in 1923)
 TC> What exactly means EMT-Basic degree? Is there also something like an
I compared my degree to U.S. EMT ones.
In the USA you have EMT-Basic, EMT-D (basic who may defibrillate), 
EMT-paramedic, just to mention the first three I have in mind.
By the way I'm BLS and simple trauma management (scoop stretcher, KED, 
cervical collar application) trained.
 TC> called in english, in german  I am "Sanit„tshelfer (SAN-B)"...I think,
I heard of them...
 TC> What are you doing in Milan? Also mainly medical service at events?
Here in Milan we work for emergency medical service "118" (emergewncy medical 
phone number, same as US 911).
EMS at events are just a small part of our work.
 TC> Are there
 TC> many volounterys in EMS in Italy?
Here in Milan we have about 10 EMS volunteer associations, 100-120 volunteers 
each, not counting Italian Red Cross. We should give to 118 at least one 
ambulance each association, and a driver for medical guard, every evening and 
night and on saturdays, sundays and holidays.
For every ambulance we need at least 3 people, 1 for medical guard and 1 as 
radio/phone operator who talks with 118 headquarter and ambulances.
I'm usually on duty from 6.30 pm to 8.00 am on saturday night. We have our 
duty one day a week.
Ciao!!!
