In This Issue: More Baby Boxes at Stations; Technology at Fire Stations; EMS-Specific Station Needs

This month, read about what Robert Tutterow considers station equipment that is past due. Also, read about how different departments are adding technology to their station designs. In addition, read about how mechanical and building issues have forced the closure of a Nashville, Tennessee, station and how Valparaiso, Indiana, has joined the list of municipalities adding “baby boxes” to their stations.
