LSEMS Recruitment | Message from the Assistant Chief of EMS | Closing Message

Summer is in full swing! The warm weather has hit the beaches of Los Santos, the skies are blue, and the waves are bringing in swimmers and surfers. Rest easy as our team of lifeguards patrols the sands and the seas, ready to assist at any moment!
The LSEMS has been blessed with a brand new modern hospital in Paleto. Additionally, the garages and helipads in Central MD have been reinstated, and medics can now station here to provide faster response to southern areas of Los Santos.
It is important to remember the dangers of the summer heat as well as the risks of spending time in the sea. You can find useful information about jellyfish stings and sunburns below.
EMT-I Ariel Anderson
Ariel's been a new star on our block, dishing out heat and sending out sparks of passion with every step she takes. She's been with us only for a couple of months, but she's already made a substantial impression on the department and all of us. Please help us congratulate her on being the LSEMS Employee of the Month for June 2024! Keep on keeping on.spacer

The Bay Medical Center
The Paleto Fire Station has shut its doors after years of being the only medical center North of Los Santos to make way for the opening of The Bay Medical Center.While the Bay Medical Center is smaller at first glance, it houses multiple specialized areas that are used to provide medical care, as well as a space for other aspects of the medical profession. It also hosts some personal touches in the decor.

Reception
The Reception is the first area you'll see when you enter Bay Medical Center. It has a small waiting area, as well as a reception desk with one of Henry's brothers behind it. You can pay for additional treatment and purchase painkillers from here. There is also a TV to the side of the reception desk where you can view images related to the department.

Treatment Center
The Treatment Center is comparable to the ICU at Pillbox MD but more open. This is where patients are brought once they have been dropped off by the ambulance. Additional treatment can be provided here to ensure the patient is medically fit to leave the hospital.

Morgue
Should there be a need to conduct an autopsy on a body, for example in the case of a suspicious death, the deceased is moved to the morgue. At the moment, the more private Pillbox MD morgue is utilized for this once certain concerns about privacy are resolved.

Chief's Office
The Chief's Office is exactly as described, an Office for the Chief. While the label says that it is specifically for the Chief, it can be used by other employees for general paperwork and duties.The office features the standard equipment anyone may need for regular paperwork duties, with the walls decorated with medical posters for those interested in human anatomy.

Kitchen
The Bay Medical Center has a large kitchen where employees can take a short break during a shift to grab a meal or socialize in between responding to life-threatening situations.No other LSEMS hospital has a break room as large as this, so it is utilized to its fullest. A note to any medics, please ensure you restock the fridge if you take anything!

The Hall of Chiefs
More of a wall than a hall, but the list displays all of the LSEMS Chiefs since its inception in 2017. Some of these names that were thought to be lost to the annals of time have been displayed on the wall, even those that served as Interim Chiefs between full Chief tenures.
