Cant miss it turn at yangebup rd right/left based on what way you come up. Take a right again and its somewhere over the left hand side not many houses so its easy to spot i dont know what street just know how to get there.

Nah I heard two rocks 2 saturdays ago with a priority 2 I think it was. I remember that particularly because I was going to mates place, and he was a vollie at two rocks.

They don't have SJA @ Two Rocks, only the vollie crew at Yanchep - their depot is just down the road from Yanchep VFRS.

We rang for an ambulance on friday for a call at work that collapsed was quite surprised she didnt ask me for my number name as soon as i mentioned chest pain..she sighed and said well the ambulance will be arriving nuder priority ebcause you said chest pain...lol
They dont have a choice. Auto call system dishes out call after call - 000, non urgents, inter service.

perhaps she didnt ask for number due cli (caller line id) as it displays on screen auto

Fire Brigade never asks for name address etc either, as it pops up on CLI. Saves a bit of time on each call, which'd count for alot if you're busy..

Sja is the ambulance service right ?

vollie or perm both wear the same hat, just one gets paid the other does it for love...haha or the flashing light syndrome

Thats what I thought, and yes my mate based at two rocks was a vollie, but did Priority calls, so they must have had at least 1 van...

Everyone is right, Two Rocks is still working, the depot is called "Yanchep/Two Rocks" and it is located in Yanchep next to VFRS.
Just thought I would clear that up with you all, you all sounded confused!!!!

XRAY team leaders are operational supervisors (called "On Road team Leader")

Clinical Team Leaders are there to provide clinical advise/direction/assistance.

The subaru in the pictures thread I believe is the Clinical Team Leaders car, shown by the single aerial on the bonnet. XRAY team leaders are usually out and about in the Marked Landcruiser or a Subaru with Two of the aerials mounted on the bonnet.
