Other Reporting Information *correction made after report given
-Staffing - Training the two new staff members. They are both doing great, will keep you posted on the progress.
-License recertification is March 31, we are working on ensuring everyone has the hours that they need. There was a 20 hour refresher course this past weekend as well as making sure we have all
of the additional CE hours, certifications such as PALS, ACLS and CPR completed.
-Working with Chief Hopper for CO monitors to monitor fire fighters during fire rehab as well as have access to monitoring pat ients of suspected carbon monoxide poisoning. I believe we have
found the required funding, just looking at refurbished vs new equipment.
-Purchased the radio app called Zello that is available via cell phone apps and can theoretically allow us to communicate from anywhere that has cell service or internet service. We have made this
available to all of our staff members. It has already proven to be a great resource for increased communication ability for s taff both on and off of shift.
-Community Health program working well. It is not a large number of patients but we are seeing a few that I believe they are making a difference with a s well as community outreach work.
-The fee schedule changes were approved by City Council. This is based on recommendations from Pintler Billing – old fee schedule was not up to date with bundled billing – confusing for billing
people. Also proposed a out of district fee for ward 5 calls and a small lift assist fee. There was a typo that had to go back to for approval to amend .
-working on a recognition program for all departments for any “save”, they will receive a certificate and a pin that is custom made for our emergency services to show the crews recognition for
significant events that made a difference in someone’s life **
