     Hatzolah only transports Jewish people I believe.

       No they don’t. They transport anyone who calls their emergency line.

     if they can’t or won’t transport Gentiles , than they shouldn’t be in the end field. That’s discrimination in an emergency situation! They need to rethink their standards

     Only the HOSPITAL HAS TO GIVE MEDICAL CARE TO UNINSURED….HATZOLAH can refuse just for being Non Jewish!!!

     Kim Dillon I can only imagine if the patient was gravely injured and they wouldn’t transport them.

     Ocean County Scanner News isn’t that illegal? Didn’t they pass the same state exam that everyone else that is an emt had to pass? I think someone has a loss suit here.

   Driving through Lakewood during business hours is like trying to avoid getting hit in a demolition derby

   “Regular Rig” = Orthodox Jews do not mess with normal citizens. #riseupoceancounty

     Dave Meyer it’s gotta be different if an orthodox person is in the medical field. I work with a few orthodox nurses and they treat the regular folk.

   So if Hatzolah is the first one called and the accident involves a “normal citizen” isn’t that a delay in treatment if Hatzolah is first on scene and has to call for a “regular rig” ?

     Maybe someone from Lakewood EMS can chime in and give us the protocol for rigs in town?

     In most cases Hatzolah will begin pt care until the township rig arrives and transfer care. Or there may be multiple injuries. They won’t delay treatment. They also usually have plenty of manpower on scene.

   That should be against the law. So if one if their own needed immediate medical care and “a regular” rig was there they wouldn’t utilize it?
