Would be good if the fire engines are first aid trained so can be on scene helping with patient before the ambulance arrive

Already done they can Treat them on all calls
Indeed it is.
It doesn't rally treat them. For some calls the fire team could treat and release the casualty

The SFRS (Scottish Fire Rescue Service) Carry a Birthing Kit and Defibs and Oxygen Tanks to Deal with calls like that so they do it in Real life and Game
It doesnt fully treat the patient though?
A basic fire engine would carry 3 Firefighters and an EMT, and have basic ALS or BLS Bag on board.

Ah i see, i quess its very different in Areas of the world.
Yeah down in south Florida and within my department, every engine and ladder company is staffed with 3 FF/Paramedic's. A good majority of the BLS level calls we cancel the Medic unit.

No everywhere in the UK has BLS trained crews, Norfolk, Suffolk and London have only just started responding to critical medical calls and I wish we had pumps around here that could carry 19 people, it’s 4-5 round here.

As TACRfan said usual most counties run with crews from 4-5 depending on the budget the service has. My local force (Derbyshire) run with 4 crew yet just across the border Nottinghamshire run with 5 crew. In more rural parts of Derbyshire the fire brigade runs a co-responder which carries basic equipment similar to whats found in a Rapid Response Car to help with Critical calls where the nearest ambulance could be 15 min away.
