大好きです！でも、トヨタのLogoはどこですか。

[koki1836]

この救急車も2500万以上しますからね。ふつうのハイエースが­7、8台買えますね

[700keilove]

実は小学生の時に怪我で乗って反対にオタクになり、免許は取れな­くても大人四人子供一人の大家族になった今一般のハイエースを買­おうと思ってるところです。

よく走っているの見かけます。やっぱりかっこいいですね。でも古­い救急車が廃車になるのが残念ですね。

[deinoie0910]

ハイエース、かっこいいな～！

[hijyuchi]

なんか、サイレンの音がソフトになった様な気がします。

最近、２００系ハイエース＆LED型ライト仕様の赤色灯を使った­救急車増えたな。

CROWNやALFARDみたいな高級車が比にならないくらいカ­ッコイイ!!

The AWD Hiace was a tad cramped in the back, but fine for 1 patient until we transferred to the local ambulance service. The Lexus had over 6ft of head room, and every gadget you could imagine (including a UV bug zapper).

Every design of ambulance has its purpose, and the small ones seem to work just fine for Japan.

[captainjacknz]

I drove a few Hiace ambulances in NZ. It was a private company, and we found the larger vehicles didn't have the handling we required. We were a private company specialising in motorsport, and the large vehicles didn't cut it on the rallys, they just didn't like the tight narrow corners.

The AWD Hiace was great for the dirt road rallys, and the Lexus V8 Hiace was great for the tarmac ones. The Lexus handled like a dream, and we know it can do over 220kmh!!

やっぱ排気は横出しなんだな、当たり前だけど

[kxlighter]

クルマで横転した時にこれ乗ったよ・・・

後輪が板バネで乗り心地最悪だった。orz

ちなみに、呼んでも15分ぐらい来なくて

忙しいのかと思ったら、ナンバーがなんと157ｗ

東消の無線通話コードを思い浮かべたら

思わず笑ってしまいましたよｗｗ

[bocchan63]

157ww

does toyota still make v8-powered versions of the haimedikku?

[SmonyAndrew]

The ugliest ambulance in the world. :(

[leftwing91]

The ASNSW (Ambulance Service New South Wales) is the statutory government run ambo service and they are the sole provider of ambulance transport (to hospitals) they have Dr's, RN's and Paramedics.

To become an intensive care paramedic it requires (usually) 4 years of uni study and they are allowed all sorts of treatment. ASNSW (and other Australian ambulance services) can rightly and proudly claim that the pt's recovery begins on scene.

[leftwing91]

What HORRIBLE emergency vehicles you people have!

Damn i would't be caught dead working for that Ambulance service!

In Australia the Hiace and all Toyota models (except for the landcruiser) were found to be too small to allow paramedics to work properly, they were also of insufficient performance which made them dangerous in emergency settings.

[unoriginalnick]

While it's true that Japanese ambulances are ridiculously small compared to those in Australia and the US, it's worthwhile to note that there are a lot of streets in Japan that are also far narrower than anything that would be deemed safe or acceptable in Australia or the US either.  There are a few fire departments in Tokyo that used to use Ford ambulances, but they were just too big to make it down a lot of streets.

[leftwing91]

Yeah but even so I wouldn't have room to work in one of those things!

Imagine doing intubation on the move with no room to swing a cat in!

Or running drugs or other IV therapies through someone! there is hardly enough room for the cannula to go in lol

We use the big Mercedes Sprinters over here, or the Volkswagon transporters - the volkswagons might be the answer to the space problem.

[unoriginalnick]

I tend to agree with you, when I worked in the US I even used to get irritated if I got stuck in a trauma twinkie instead of a mod. Though the EMS service in Japan is almost entirely scoop and run with few if any interventions, so having space to intubate is less of an issue. Even with the (relatively new) paramedic program starting to take off, protocols are extremely restrictive and there is definitely an emphasis on rapid transport with minimal care on scene or en-route.

[leftwing91]

Oh I didn't realise that it was so restrictive in terms of skill over there!

Most of the Paramedics over here are "intensive care" paramedics and are usually RN's and/or at least degree qualified in Bachelor of Clinical Practice. Even the least qualified paramedics (P1 Paramedic) is tertiary educated and trained.

[unoriginalnick]

Australia is pretty famous for having one of, if not the, best paramedic programs in the world, so you're going to find a lot of places that don't compare. Japanese paramedics go through a postsecondary training program similar to what US medics do, but the philosophy in Japanese medicine seems to be that you are either a physician or a nothing so they are very limited in what they are allowed to do. They are only allowed to give one drug, epinephrine, and only in cardiac arrest. continued...

[unoriginalnick]

They can start peripheral IVs, but can only give saline (or epi with doc's orders). They can intubate, but only in respiratory arrest on uncomplicated cases, so no RSI or crics. They can use semiautomatic defibrillators, but no 12-lead, synchronized cardioversion, or pacing. No pain management either. Other than those few things, they're a totally BLS system. With patient transport times averaging 60+ minutes and getting worse in Tokyo, it's something that is going to have to change.

お世話になったよ

Great video! I like the new style Hiaces. :-)

新型ハイメディク

funny to see #s 187 on an ambulance's license plate. In California 187=homicide.

thanks for the upload
