EMS supplies in NYC

[col_scheisskopf]

Hi, new here, I was just wondering if any of you NYC guys know where to buy EMS supplies in the city. I'm mostly looking for clothing and basic stuff like trauma shears and the like.

I'm not in NYC, so forget the store and it's address that I provided.

Where in NYC are you?

Seems like a man could make a killing by opening a wacker supply shoppe in Long Island.

If a few FDNY guys were smart, they'd pool their money and go in on that deal.

Laugh at the wackers behind their backs... all the way to the bank!

I recommend "On The Job Uniforms". They are in Staten Island.

Great EMS books and basic stuff like shears pen lights at the Barnes and Noble Book store in Manhattan i think its on like 18th st or 17th street and Broadway. Used to be a place called the Finest and Bravest and Best in the Bronx,, it sold uniforms , buff tee shirts hats, patches, etc..... but it closed down several years ago,,,, SCHLESINGERS in Manhattan may still be in business,, last location was off of seventh or broadway in Manhattan on like 15 or 16th street... alot of uniform store went away with the FDNY hostile takeover of EMS.. they now get uniforms from FDNY quartermaster...

also look up a store called E.S.U. (Emergnecy Supplies Unlimited) in Valley Stream, LI,,,, I dunno if its still there but if it is they carry uniform stuff

I would check with some of the volunteer units like Central Park Medical Unit or private hospitals like St. Vincents, or St. Lukes Roosevelt as to where they get their uniforms.

I've been out of NYC for several years,, and thats the best i can tell u.

Hi there, new to the forum (just managed to come across it via google). I used to live in Queens, and if you're looking for uniforms and supplies you can go to Jo-Paul's Uniforms in Richmond Hill Queens. It has a combination of NYPD and EMS stuff. I know the Jamaica Hospital EMS guys go there (being it's in their neighborhood). It's located at 105-02 Jamaica Ave (718-849-3861). The only other uniform store in the city limits I'm aware of is "Uniforms by Park Coats" which is 790 3rd Ave in Brooklyn (718-499-1182) I've passed by a few Uniform places in Long Island, but can't speak one way or another about any of them. I know your post was a few months ago, I hope my post is still helpful to you.
