Directly from the Fireboard rules:

2.3.4 RESCUE BOX - Combined fire and ambulance dispatch may include 10-50s, drowning, water related emergencies, cave-ins with entrapment, etc. The nature of the call and the discretion of the dispatcher will be taken into consideration. WHEN IN DOUBT DISPATCH FIRE AND EMS.

2.3.4.1 One (1) ambulance will be dispatched for every two- (2) people injured.

2.3.4.2 A minimum of two (2) ambulance companies will be dispatched on all motor vehicle accidents when two (2) or more vehicles are involved (unless there is only one confirmed injury) or when in doubt.


They dispatched accordingly, 59 triple pulled and a single ambulance from 19 responded.
