I notice this is a Goodhew ambulance - is there an actual hospital in LA called Goodhew? Or is it a fictious hospital? As, I remember in Heat (1995) they used ambulances like this one. Same make/livery etc, but they were not 'box' style ambulance but 'high roof' versions. |

Goodhew Ambulance Service is or was a private ambulance company in Los Angeles. The Los Angeles County Ambulance Association website says: http://www.lacaa.net/ Goodhew does not appear in the association's current membership directory, so I assume that it closed or was taken over by another company. http://www.lacaa.net/MembershipDirectory.aspx |

Yup, it's no longer operational. Besides the local Fire Department Ambulance Services, two of the biggest ambulance companies operating in LA County are AMR (American Medical Response) and Care. I think Care now has the contract with the county (AMR had it a few years ago, I don't know what caused the change). -- Last edit: 2009-03-22 22:27:10 |

Ah! Thank you Gag Halfrunt and ford guy for answering my query. Stupid me, I didn't think of a privately ambulance company! Additionally, thank you for the update on the current scene of ambulance groups in LA at the moment. Thank you Gag for the history of the company; I never knew that...I've learnt something new for today! |

Can this be changed to a 1991? |

No VIN for this one. |

Goodhew Ambulance Service was originally brought out by the Med-Trans in 1995, and then brought out by the AMR when Med-Trans was taken over by the AMR in 1997. -- Last edit: 2024-04-01 10:07:24 |
