The Emergency Communications Center (ECC), a division of the Manatee County Department of Public Safety, is responsible for the receiving and handling of all calls, processing the information for dispatch to the appropriate agencies, dispatching appropriate EMS and/or fire agencies and handling all other agency requests. ECC processes all 911 calls utilizing the Medical, Fire & Police Priority Dispatch System (MPDS, FPDS & PPDS) protocols written and supported by the International Academies of Emergency Dispatch (IAED). 2. Emergency Communications Center (ECC) provides dispatch services for Fire and EMS utilizing the county-owned 800 MHz EDACS radio system. All fire and EMS agencies are dispatched on the same frequency and then assigned a tactical frequency to handle their incident. Fire and EMS units are also informed of call assignment by a variety of other notification 3
5 methods supported by CAD: automatic text pages, rip n run printers, invehicle mobile data terminals, and Manatee County Radio Shop approved station alert system. 3. Emergency Communications Center (ECC) utilizes a CAD system, supported by GIS, that enhances the processing and dispatching of Fire and EMS units to calls for service. 4. Fire personnel/units are dispatched to medical emergencies, along with EMS, based upon the specific nature of the event, as determined by IAED protocols. Each MPDS subtype is assigned a standard response (always respond fire, respond fire if EMS has an extended response or no fire response). Response assignment decisions are made by the Dispatch Steering Committee responsible for oversight of MPDS & FPDS administration for ECC. EMS units are dispatched to calls based upon the location of the closest available unit, regardless of local city or fire jurisdictions. 5. Any First Responder arriving first at a scene where a medical emergency is suspected or confirmed will relay patient status information directly to the responding EMS unit via radio, or to ECC via landline if radio communications are not possible. If an EMS unit has not yet been dispatched (due to the original nature of the call), the responder on scene may request immediate dispatch of an EMS unit. V. Roles and Responsibilities of First Responders at Medical Emergencies before the arrival of EMS 1. When EMS has not arrived on scene yet, the First Responder shall be responsible for: a) Scene safety and initial crowd control at the scene of a medical emergency; b) Initial assessment, treatment and/or resuscitation of patient(s) on the scene; and c) Provide the extrication of patients from entrapment or from a dangerous environment. 2. Upon arrival at an EMS Incident, take appropriate barrier precautions prescribed by OSHA in the Blood-borne Pathogens Standard whenever exposure to blood or body fluids is likely. 3. The First Responder shall perform a primary assessment. As defined by protocol, stabilization of the cervical spine shall be undertaken when the mechanism of injury reasonably suggests the possibility of cervical injury. When in doubt, stabilize the cervical spine. Initiate BLS in accordance 4
6 with the most current standards promulgated by the American Heart Association when indicated and other BLS treatments as outlined in the latest edition of the Manatee County EMS System Community Protocols as approved by the Medical Director. 4. In accordance with the Manatee County Protocols and with the most current American Heart Association Guidelines, apply and activate an AED for all patients suffering from sudden cardiac arrest. 5. Assist, support, and cooperate with Manatee County EMS personnel. Upon arrival of the Paramedic from Manatee County EMS, the First Responder of the Fire Agency will transfer care of the patient to the Manatee County Charge Paramedic. At that time the Manatee County Charge Paramedic will take responsibility for the patient s continued care, treatment and the transportation of the patient. Fire Agency personnel will assist as requested under the direct supervision of Manatee County EMS personnel. VI. Documentation of Patient Care 1. The First Responder if on scene first, shall make an attempt to provide available patient information, assessment and treatment information on the Fire Agency Patient Care Report (PCR) for each patient attended. Such patient care reports shall be maintained by the fire district and made available to Manatee County EMS upon request. 2. The Fire Agencies shall have policies and procedures to assure that each report is legible, complete, and is signed by the First Responder providing patient care for all EMS Patients. Documentation of Patient Care will be in accordance to the Manatee County EMS System Community Policy titled Documentation of a Patient Care Report as approved by the Medical Director. 3. The Fire Agencies shall supply Manatee County EMS Medic units with the names of the Fire Agency personnel that provided the Emergency Medical Care. 4. The Fire Agencies shall maintain all patient care reports in accordance to the records retention laws of Florida. VII. Equipment Requirements 1.
