1 FSS, Inc. Assessment of Emergency Services for City of Lake Dallas Hickory Creek Shady Shores By Corinth (Lake Cities) Fire Department Argyle (Denton Co Fire Dist. 1) Fire Department
2 Criteria for the Assessment Key Components from the Cities Leadership Applied in the Analysis Contracted service for fire and EMS emergencies are adequate for risks in the community to: Meet needs at affordable costs Provide accountability to citizens for increasing costs Provide sustainable services to citizens
3 Criteria for the Assessment National Standards and Regulations OSHA Respiratory Protection Standard 29 CFR Two-in Two-out Federal/state law (legally binding) NFPA 1500 Standard on FD Safety and Health Specifies minimum safety and health requirements Basis for numerous other NFPA standards NFPA 1710 Standard for Deployment of Fire and EMS Depts. Establishes minimum response times, staffing and operations
4 Criteria for the Assessment Pages 4 28 highlight core components of each NFPA code a reference for city decision makers. You are not bound by the codes unless you adopt them. You can use codes as guides. Points for special consideration are identified. Each department s services that meet or exceed the codes are stated where applicable.
5 NFPA 1500: Standard on Fire Department Occupational Health and Safety Program Chapter 4 FD Administration Shall prepare and maintain written policies and standard operating procedures document organization structure, membership, roles and responsibilities, expected functions and training requirements, including: Types of standard evolutions expected to be performed for different types of situations Minimum number of members required to perform each function or evolution Number and types of apparatus and number of personnel to be dispatched to different types of incidents Procedures to be employed to initiate and manage operations at emergency incident Both departments have identified roles and responsibilities and provide weekly, annual and special training for personnel Training outlines and records verify preparedness to perform Each department has procedures for managing operations at emergency incidents which also are the basis for personnel training. Number and type of apparatus and personnel dispatched for different types of incidents are set up in a box system each department has with the Denton Co. Sheriff s Dispatch Center for 1 st to 4 th alarms, fire or major incident.

Departments are paid by Denton County for their responses to unincorporated areas. Responses are based on a Box System built around capabilities of departments in reference to location, availability, and expertise needed. Changing the fire and emergency service provider would not change the level of response but would change the department that is in first response and could change mutual aid between Corinth and current mutual aid assignments to be agreements with Argyle for the area.

25 NFPA 1710: Standard for the Organization and Deployment of Fire Suppression Operations, Emergency Medical Operations, and Special Operations to the Public by Career Fire Departments NFPA Fire Department Services All fire departments with ALS services shall have a named medical director with the responsibility to oversee and to ensure quality medical care in accordance with state laws or regulations. Oversight and Medical Director Involvement Corinth Medical Director Dr. Olmsted rides out monthly with EMS, and checks EMS reports. DCFD#1 Dr. Northiemer tests each paramedic one on one annually. He gives them scenarios and they explain what they would do for the patient. Each medic averages one hour during the testing. Every EMS call is evaluated by Lt. Miller he checks the reports to assure medics are following protocols as outline by our Medical Director.
26 NFPA 1710: Standard for the Organization and Deployment of Fire Suppression Operations, Emergency Medical Operations, and Special Operations to the Public by Career Fire Departments NFPA Fire Department Services Fire departments providing ALS services shall provide a mechanism for immediate communications with EMS supervision and medical oversight. Protocols Corinth Protocols were last updated in 2014 and new cardiac science guidelines came out in These new guideline changes effect BLS and Advanced Cardiac Care. DCFD#1 Protocols were updated in February 2016.
27 NFPA 1710: Standard for the Organization and Deployment of Fire Suppression Operations, Emergency Medical Operations, and Special Operations to the Public by Career Fire Departments NFPA Fire Department Services - Other EMS considerations offered by the evaluator EMS Staffing Lake Cities lists itself as providing Advanced Life Support utilizing full ACLS therapies from all Fire/EMS apparatus including Deputy Chiefs. Fire engines also maintain standing order kits. This can result in decreased response times and better service to citizens. Argyle Fire Districts Organizational Structure states that they are capable of deploying both BLS and ACLS level care. Caution: Does Lake Cities also provide BLS level care or only ACLS level care? Problems can result from billing Medi-Care and Medi-Cade for ACLS and not BLS when appropriate. Fraud could be committed without really realizing it. Billing is an issue that is easily resolved with 3 party vendors.
28 NFPA 1710: Standard for the Organization and Deployment of Fire Suppression Operations, Emergency Medical Operations, and Special Operations to the Public by Career Fire Departments NFPA Fire Department Services - Other EMS considerations offered by the evaluator OSHA Standards for Emergency Personnel The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is currently writing standards for emergency personnel. These standards will revolutionize both fire and EMS, but will also effect anyone who responds to emergencies. This could be City Staff, utilities personnel, police, fire and EMS, etc. These changes will be costly to implement and should be considered in the planning of these changes.
29 NFPA 1710: Standard for the Organization and Deployment of Fire Suppression Operations, Emergency Medical Operations, and Special Operations to the Public by Career Fire Departments NFPA Fire Department Services - Other EMS considerations offered by the evaluator Management of Quality of EMS Services Lake Cities reported that 100% of all EMS are Quality Improvement (QI) reviewed. The QI of 100% is amazing, however, we do not know the results of this QI. What has been found? What percentage of runs require corrective action? The prevalence of a high number of complaints, corrective actions, or law suits indicate the effectiveness of training programs and supervision by the command staff. A minimum number of runs made simplifies a 100% QI capability. (Estimate of runs.) If the geographic area served changes, will EMS services be able to sustain this rating? DCFD#1 shows Quality Improvement with regards to training medics, however, there is no indication of ongoing quality improvement of actual incidents.
30 NFPA 1710: Standard for the Organization and Deployment of Fire Suppression Operations, Emergency Medical Operations, and Special Operations to the Public by Career Fire Departments NFPA Fire Department Services - Other EMS considerations offered by the evaluator Pharmaceutical Capabilities Protocols listed for both departments include all the required formularies for treating emergency patients. However, the volumes indicated show what is issued to each ambulance, but does not show what is stocked at the station. Keeping supplies limited saves money with the rotation of expired drugs and is effective in keeping the medications out of the heat. Overall, both department seem equal in this regard.
31 NFPA 1710: Standard for the Organization and Deployment of Fire Suppression Operations, Emergency Medical Operations, and Special Operations to the Public by Career Fire Departments NFPA Fire Department Services - Other EMS considerations offered by the evaluator Specialized Training By Each Department Lake Cities has ability to respond to hazardous materials events. Lake Cities shows minimal training in mass shootings, mass-casualty, and trench and excavation incidents. These events are managed through mutual response plans or agreements for all cities in the geographic area. Argyle Fire District lists its abilities to respond to many different incidents, including hazardous materials events, mass shootings, mass casualty, and trench and excavation incidents. Argyle Fire District was recognized in 2016 by the American Heart Association with a Mission: Lifeline EMS Bronze Achievement Award for demonstrating continued success in using the Mission: Lifeline EMS program to apply the most up-to-date evidence and treatment guidelines to improve patient care and outcomes in the community it serves.
32 NFPA 1710: Standard for the Organization and Deployment of Fire Suppression Operations, Emergency Medical Operations, and Special Operations to the Public by Career Fire Departments NFPA Fire Department Services - Other EMS considerations offered by the evaluator EMS Response Recommendations Fire response in conjunction with EMS is imperative on the following type runs: cardiac arrest, shootings, stabbings, and major vehicle accidents, including people pinned. In cases where an engine is closer and can begin care if an ambulance is in outlying areas, an engine should be dispatched. If a call turns into a cardiac arrest, an engine should be dispatched. High quality CPR criteria require rotation of compressors every two minutes. A firefighter, EMT, or paramedic riding an engine can be utilized as this third person while en route to the hospital. However this may require putting an engine out-of-service, as 4 people are required to effectively respond as an engine company.
33 NFPA 1710: Standard for the Organization and Deployment of Fire Suppression Operations, Emergency Medical Operations, and Special Operations to the Public by Career Fire Departments NFPA Fire Department Services 5.5 Airport Rescue and Fire-Fighting (ARFF) Services. 6 Systems 6.1 Safety and Health System A fire-fighter occupational safety and health program shall be provided in accordance with NFPA Incident management system shall be provided in accordance with NFPA 1561 to form the basic structure of all emergency operations of the fire department, regardless of the scale of the department or the emergency. 6.3 Training system to ensure are trained to execute all responsibilities 6.4 Communication system to reliably facilitate prompt delivery of public fire suppression, EMS and special operations. Denton Airport ARFF are first responders through the Box System for aircraft fires at Hidden Valley Airport (private) in Shady Shores.
34 NFPA 1710: Standard for the Organization and Deployment of Fire Suppression Operations, Emergency Medical Operations, and Special Operations to the Public by Career Fire Departments NFPA Fire Department Services The key point is to clearly set out the specific services the fire department is authorized and expected to perform. Most fire departments are responsible to a governing body. The governing body has the right and should assert its authority to set the specific services and limits of the services the fire department will provide. It also has the responsibility to furnish the necessary resources for delivery of the designated services. The fire department should provide its governing body with a specific description of each service, with options or alternatives and an accurate analysis of the costs and resources needed for each service. It also gives the governing body an accounting of the costs of services and allows it to select those services it can afford to provide. Likewise, the governing body should identify services it cannot afford to provide and cannot authorize the fire department to deliver, or it should assign those services to another agency. The AHJ s risk assessment process includes adopted building codes, required fire/life safety related engineering controls, accepted service delivery performance objectives, complexity of facilities and occupancy hazards (low, medium, and high) within the jurisdiction.
35 ISO Rating ISO Information Keep in mind 50% of the ISO rating is for its fire department, 40% for its water supply and 10% for its dispatching capabilities. The smaller the number the better the rating. Each zone of the area covered is rated separately, thus the / rating. Lake Cities is rated a Class 4/9 with the Insurance Services Offices. Argyle Fire District is rated a Class 3/8 with the Insurance Services Office. If you change to Argyle the Chief will request a fast track to get ratings updated to what they would be with their department.
36 Service Quality Assessment Summary Operation Plans Staffing Patterns Training / Ability Responder Ability Equal Similar / Adequate Excellent in Both Departments Excellent at entry and sustained with quality training
37 Service Quality Assessment Summary Responder Cost Equipment Cost and Maintenance EMS Service Quality Response Time Corinth is almost twice as high per person on average than Argyle. Only Corinth charges for administrative cost = $747,845 annual average from DCFD #1 administrative costs are covered by fire districts taxes. Same manufacturer with area service center. Different costs relate primarily to specifications for different capacities of apparatus. Neither department compares cost with other manufacturers. Excellent in Both Departments. Similar Protocols. Corinth updated in 2014 Argyle updated in 2016 State updates in 2015 Similar Medical Supervision. Protocols and meds are decided by supervising physician. Both have average response times longer than the NFPA standard (240 Seconds). Corinth average 360 seconds. Argyle s FF response. averages 480 seconds and EMS 180 seconds. Analysis of causes and options for reducing are needed.
