EMS DIVISION DIVISION

Free Standing Emergency Departments ( FSED)

We are now able to transport to three FSEDs but please complete your assigned FR1 training before doing so. You will need to learn the format to follow prior to using this option.

Operation "No Chart Left Behind"

What if I forget to post my ePCR chart? Great question! It is critical that all completed charts get posted. To ensure “no chart is left behind”’, captains will receive a report if a transport ePCR wasn’t posted. These reports will be automated every 24 hours and the officer in charge of the EMS call will receive the report if the ePCR was never posted. For example, E288 runs an EMS call with M281 if the ePCR was never posted the captain of E288 will receive the report. In addition, we have our BC/FIT team’s monitoring for missing charts as well. If you happen to forget to post a chart, you will get a call to let you know it needs to be posted.

Banner Ocotillo Medical Center (BOMC) BOMC will be ready for EMS traffic and opening November 3rd. BOMC has hired their pre-hospital coordinator and his name is Kyle Luginbyhl. Kyle served in the US Army and was with Artesia Fire Department in New Mexico for seven years before beginning a flight medic career which ultimately led him to Chandler. Coming up... 4th Quarter Training!

Your training for this quarter will be ACLS/CPR re-certification through ASHI. A copy of the newest ACLS study guide has been sent to each station (station copy only) for you to study. For our ALS members, your individual tests have been loaded onto FR1 and NEED TO BE DONE BY OCTOBER 31st. For

BLS members you will have a few items to review on FR1 but the focus will be your hands on when you come to training.
