How many of us "Public Safety Professionals" are cross trained in other service areas?

I am a full time police officer also work part time as a paramedic.  I am also trained as a fire fighter and HAZ-MAT tech as well as various rescue specialties.  If anyone knows of or works for a agency that uses all three trainings please let me know I would like to find a true "Public Safety" agency.

Thanks

I'm leaning that way also.  I work full-time for a college police department and part-time for the city's fire department (I am full-time certified) and regional squad.  There are some Public Safety departments in Western Ohio, but none near me.  I have not been looking to much though because there is more training I want to get before I leave my current location.

Half way through EMT-B as of Saturday. I seem to be smoking the practical, and doing ok in the written. I'd like to get into LEO, but at my age with my back/knees, I'd never pass the physical. I did just beat the training officer at his own PPC course on Sunday though [;)] .
