As a taxpayer, I do not like this schedule. The top 35 stations in the city had 15+ runs a day in 2006 (excluding paramedic calls, move-ups or assignments not in their area). Can you spell f-a-t-i-g-u-e? I don't want a FF tending to my needs while approaching the end of his shift.<BR/> <BR/>I'd like to see comparable scientific studies from departments similar in size to LAFD (i.e. Chicago, Philly, NY, San Francisco) that the 48/96 shift does not produce any more fatigue as the current schedule.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
