IMPROVE EFFICIENCY, AND THE MAYOR ALSO PLANS TO DEVOTE $600,000 TO HIRING MORE PARAMEDICS AND 911 OPERATORS. 비바카지노 Viva맥스카지노�S MADISON ELLIOTT JOINS US NOW LIVE FROM EMERGENCY SERVICES IN DOWNTOWN LOUISVILLE. WITH MORE ON HOW HE SAYS THIS WILL HELP. MADISON. HEY, GOOD EVENING GUYS. SO HE맥스카지노�S LOOKING TO ADD MEDICAL STAFF TO THEIR 911 CENTER HERE IN DOWNTOWN. THIS COULD MEAN NURSES, PHYSICIANS, ASSISTANTS AND MORE. AND THE GOAL IS TO CUT DOWN ON EMERGENCY SERVICES GOING TO NON-EMERGENCY CALLS. OVER THE LAST 24 MONTHS. EMERGENCY SERVICES DEPUTY DIRECTOR KELLY JONES SAYS OPERATORS HAVE TAKEN AROUND 300,000 CALLS, BUT NOT ALL OF THEM WERE EMERGENCIES THAT MAY HAVE NEEDED AN AMBULANCE. THAT맥스카지노�S A WHOLE LOT OF PHONE CALLS PUTTING A STRAIN ON OUR ENTIRE MEDICAL SYSTEM. THAT맥스카지노�S WHY ON TUESDAY, MAYOR CRAIG GREENBERG WENT INTO MORE DETAIL ON A PIECE OF HIS PROPOSED BUDGET, LOOKING TO TAKE THE STRAIN OFF THE EMERGENCY SERVICES SYSTEM. HE WANTS TO HIRE 911 OPERATORS WHO ARE MEDICALLY TRAINED. THEY CAN HELP RESOLVE MORE CALLS OVER THE PHONE OR THROUGH VIDEO ONE DAY TO FREE UP OUR AMBULANCES TO FOCUS ON THOSE EMERGENCY RUNS THAT THEY MOST NEED TO MAKE AND PRIORITIZE. JONES SAYS THEIR TEAM HAS STUDIED OTHER CITIES WITH SIMILAR PROGRAMS, LIKE AUSTIN OR FORT WORTH, BUT THEY맥스카지노�RE STILL DECIDING WHAT IT WOULD LOOK LIKE HERE. WE ENVISION TAKING THESE CALLS THROUGH 911 AND THEN HAVING OUR STAFF HELP DECIDE, IS THIS A TRUE EMERGENCY CALL? CAN WE OFFER SOMEONE AN ALTERNATIVE, MAYBE AN URGENT CARE OR A FRIEND? TAKE THEM SOMEWHERE? WHAT IS IT THAT WE CAN DO TO MAKE IT BETTER? EMERGENCY SERVICES SAYS AMBULANCE RESPONSE TIMES VARY DEPENDING ON THE CALL, BUT HAVING MEDICAL STAFF IN THE 911 CALL CENTER COULD REDUCE THE NUMBER OF CALLS EMS RESPONDS TO AND IMPROVE CARE FOR ACTUAL EMERGENCIES, WHETHER THAT맥스카지노�S AN ACCIDENT IN NEED RIGHT NOW OR A HEART ATTACK VICTIM SOMEWHERE AT HOME. IT COULD JUST BE A WHOLE GAMUT OF THINGS, BUT HOPEFULLY THIS JUST HELPS HER BE MORE RESOURCES AT ANY GIVEN TIME. FOR EMERGENCY MEDICINES. NOW, HOW MANY POSITIONS THEY WILL HIRE WILL BE DETERMINED BY THE EXPERIENCE LEVEL OF THE MEDICAL STAFF, AS THAT WILL ALSO IMPACT SALARY. BUT FIRST, THE MAYOR SAYS THE BUDGET NEEDS TO BE PASSED AND THAT맥스카지노�S EXPECTED TO HAPPEN AT THE END OF JUNE.
