Ambulance certification expiration????

[ghostmed3]

So i work for a private service in Tennessee. I noiced last night a few of our units had inspection stickers that say 2014-2015 next to the unit state sticker. My question is if they say 14-15 are they not expired therefore out of service?? My immediate supervisor says no however private services here arent exactly trustworthy.... anyone know for sure

It would make sense that a sticker dated 2015 would be expired in 2016.  However, I bet your EMS regional or State office would be able to answer your question definitively.  If you are concerned about the repurcussions of calling it would be advisable to take steps to have another job lined up before you call.

It could be that was the year the unit was last inspected which doesn't necessarily indicate a lack compliance. I would check into your states inspection requirements and reporting standards before pursuing this any more aggressively.
