The Oak Valley Hospital District Ambulance is a great example of an innovative department with leadership thinking "outside the box" to address common needs and issues. Located in Oakdale, California, this hospital-based ambulance service serves their surrounding rural communities with superior quality medical care.

Recently, the Service took delivery of two Type II ambulances fitted with FERNO iNTRAXX - a modular vehicle component system which enables equipment and consumables to be transported within emergency vehicles in 20G crash-tested safety.

The iNTRAXX System's versatility and the modular, space-saving nature of its design has provided Oak Valley Hospital District Ambulance with:

• The ability to reduce the size of its ambulance from a larger box-style ambulance to a more compact Type II vehicle which is built on a van-style chassis
• On-going cost benefits associated with the ability to limit over-stocking of consumables and equipment within the ambulance.
