Each is equipped with:

The First Aid Squad has a policy that all its ambulances are always configured identically. This means that the EMT will be able to locate any supplies in exactly the same cabinet regardless of which ambulance he is riding in. Any photos of the interior of any of the three ambulances would look exactly the same.
