John MacGregor, EMS supervisor. “It’s much higher than we thought we ever would be but we’re doing a lot more interfacility transfers and obviously that 11,000 miles attests to that.”</span></span></span></span></span></span></p></div> <span class="post-categories red" ><a href="/news" hreflang="en">News</a></span> <div style="display: none"><svg aria-hidden="true"
