[quote name='Lime Guy' post='114989' date='Jun 3 2007, 10:10 ']What do the Cataldo Supervisors do?[/quote]



What all superviors do, drive around and try to look important.
In reality, Cataldo only has paramedic field supervisors (got rid of BLS field sups 2 years ago), they take care of crew issues, deliver the suplies to the bases, handle paperwork,etc,etc. and then of course taking care of 911 calls (they are automatically dispatched to all working fires, MCIs and calls of that nature) aside from that they pick and choose which emergencies they feel like going on depending the nature of the call, also act as ALS intercept and they take over EMS Command at any scene in our service area. The sup trucks also contain spare equipment of every type, and some basic rehab gear for fire scenes. (working fires and large MCI's will have out support/EMS command trailer dispatched containing the rest of the rehab equipment)



Regarding working at Cataldo, I personally like it very much, unfortunatly I cant compare it to any other company as it has been the only one I have worked for thus-far. It is still family owned with Bob, Diana and Dennis Cataldo in the office everyday. The overall majority of field personell are outstanding both in attitude and clinical ability. Management is well management, but for the most part very strong. The service area is excellent in terms of 911 calls and the types of calls within our area, the equipment is decent, well maintained and new (within the last year we took delivery of 7 new ALS ambulances and currently are taking in 9 new BLS) Only downside I can see is that we are still working with paper, supposedly we are looking into a paperless system using some sort of table pc (last i heard was the toughbooks used by Armstrong)

John. From what I remember being told Bob Cataldo started it out of his house in Malden and when he got a call (no emergency work back then) he would drive to Somerville and pick up Dan R. and go do the call. Caggiano I believe started out of the funeral home in Winthrop, there are a few others from years ago that started that way. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/usa.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Usa' />
