A story in Thursday's Review-Journal on a possible strike by American Medical Response emergency medical services personnel incorrectly described the availability of paramedic transport units in the Las Vegas and Clark County fire departments. The Las Vegas Fire Department has 20 paramedic transport units, or teams, and nine reserve transport units. The Clark County Fire Department has 24 paramedic transport units and two paramedic fire engine units that can treat patients but not transport them.
