Only its for sure 500K wont come close to putting a unit in the northwestern part of the county.


However you are wrong about hospitals picking up patients at rural hospitals. In fact they are even putting a unit at some rural hospitals.

I'll have to agree with fins on the tax bringing in more then 500K now.

I'm pretty sure that sales tax money is considerably more than $500k. I'd say it's double that easily.

The $500,000 k generated from the sales tax would not cover the cost of operating a transport unit for the Hospital much less purchase and staff an ALS unit in the north end of the County. If you think that the receiving facility will pick up a patient for anything other than neonatal ICU you are in some sort of dream land.

yes there are trucks at other hospitial that transfer pt's however these are very difficult to have to come to smaller hospitials they are must often "booked soild " with transfers having one at amh is jot going to happen anytime soon watauga has tried this with no luck alot of the times it is quicker to have a flight service come . these " fleet or trucks" are critical care which most pt's amh transfer's are not criteria for with exceptions to be sure. some of the transfer's at amh to other hospitials are urgent most are not i have been around the medical field for number of years this not enough ems trucks for transports and 911 calls is a big problem more local trucks could be added at taxpayers cost amh cannot "staff there own" transport unit for one the transports are part of the ashe medics contract as far as the crew for this transportt truck they have to be certified by office of ems to do this and trust me no ems person wants to do transports out of town all day every day

Novant and Atrium have a fleet of ambulances that could come and get a patient. Since AMH is under the umbrella of Novant they could post a unit at AMH. I am told it took an act of congress to get Craig to put a unit in Beeach Mountain so putting a unit in northern Ashe is a pipe dream.

Now I had a lease, it was worth nothing, I had a good mans word from 1974 until 1986 that was,as good as gold, and I had a liars not a buyer-sellrr/not a rental from a lyinh scamartist. Out of all of it the only thing worth a **** was Hal Heafners word and his own son turned that to ****. So don't give me some crap about a **** lease on something I have every right to be on.

Back even dogs daddy knew a DUD when he spawned one. I bet he wished he has used to condoms to prevent that thing from entering the world. His mother should have swallowed.

Cause if anyone knows about duds it is for sure Snot. Chick said Bill was the only dud his parents raised and it was for sure muwah that said Snot is the only dud his parents raised. He has expanded being a dud more than Sully ever expanded anything.

A few years ago, Craig put a unit on the west end of Watauga. Im surprised the brats on beech Mtn havent already demanded a unit up there. But they really should demand a helicopter, not an ambulance.


Not to say I told everyone so, but I called the sales tax when the mouth breathers were pushing it before. But the moroons voting didnt listen because it was for the hospital

Fins I have been informed that Craig is placing a unit in Beach mtn. due to all the fuss that Blowing rock and Beach have been making for a unit. Craig may have to really raise rates.

Fins the hospital got the money for 3 years and then the county put that half a million in the general fund. Remember the commissioners at the time lied to all the voters of the county to get the tax passed. The tax likely brings in much more now then half a million.


Alleghany voters weren't fooled a few years ago and voted it down. I am to under stand its going to be on the ballot again in May.

Dog, is the hospital still getting that sales tax money? Or did that get kicked back into the general budget and the commissioners forget to lower the tax again? Seems like it would be more than enough to run a transport unit each year. Heck, it might run a transport unit and a unit in the north end.
