| Ambulances and First Responders | It was agreed that services will be referred to as Transport and Non-Transport services. Ambulances are licensed and thus there is an accurate listing of these services. First Responders are neither licensed nor certified, thus it is not possible to determine accurately how many there are. The list of Assessment respondents is our best list of these services until Rule 113 takes effect. | Dennis and Marianne will obtain further information on Rule 113 will be obtained. |
| Status of WEEPP | It was also discussed that further research needs to be done on the need to provide treatment in a disaster without the permission/direction of medical control. | Dennis and Marianne will research on treatment in a disaster without direction from medical control |

| WEEPP Training Module |
Services do not have to
participate in WEEPP training; however, reimbursement
will not be made to any service unless they complete the
WEEPPP Training. START is not a requirement, but is
highly encouraged in order to have consistency across
the state. Whether employers are willing to supply
trainers is up to the employer; much depends upon how
they see their mission as an employer. Training will be
done on “first come, first serve” basis. RTAC
Coordinators may adapt the Training Instructions to
their own RTAC. It was agreed that all training will be completed by February 28, 2006 with the exercise to be held between March and August 2006. |
