On Thursday, May 19, 2016, the 16th annual FDNY EMS Health Fair and Competition was held outside of FDNY Headquarters in Brooklyn. EMTs and Paramedics across NYC tested their life-saving skills using real-life scenarios with mock patients. FDNY life safety mascot Siren, the FDNY Fire Safety Education team, and the FDNY Mobile CPR Unit were also on hand, teaching attendees to be ‪#‎FDNYSmart‬.

Adam Stern I am trying to get in touch with the persons who were taking pictures at the Event. I was one of the members competing and someone from HQ took a picture of me and my daughter doing CPR at the cpr tent. Any help to get in touch with the person who took that picture so I can get a copy. I would really appreciate the help.

“We estimated that the patient had been entangled underneath the engine of the boat for quite some time before someone on the dock heard his cries for help and called 911.

Jim Braunstein FDNY trying to re-write history as usual. FDNY had nothing to do with EMS in NYC before 1996. In fact, they sneered down at it with disdain. That ambulance was probably used to transport their members from hospital to home.

Gene Iannuzzi This vehicle had NOTHING to do with EMS in NYC. This was one in a series of vehicles SOLELY used for injured FFs and NOT for 911 or public response. To imply that it did or that FDNY had anything to do with EMS prior to the merger in 1996 is historically inaccurate and insulting to those who laid the groundwork for modern EMS in the Department of Hospitals and NYC*EMS. Please fact check before posting.
