Public/Emergency Service and Conceal Carry (Fire, EMS, etc)

[Craftypoppa]

How many of you are part of some kind of emergency service and have your conceal carry? And then how do you deal with carrying? For example I am a volunteer fireman and medical first responder. When I go on medical calls I don't take my gun off. When I go on a fire call I have a holster in my truck I put it in and lock up my truck or if leaving from home I leave it there.

Im with Gatlinburg public works. According to the city handbook we have to leave our guns locked in our personal vehicle.

I'm a Firefighter and we are not allowed to have a gun on Metro property so that solves that problem.

Paramedic here. There is no law stating that we cannot carry, but most departments policies prohibit carry while on duty.

I seem to be one of the lucky ones whose departments do not restrict our carrying as long as it is concealed.

Emergency Management - no guns allowed on metro communication center property unless you are a law enforcement officer.

I work for a DoD contractor of Federal Property so I don't carry....but some of our guys work PT elsewhere and I have heard a few that carry while on the ambulance.
