FROM: Robert Rehr, Fire Chief
DATE: July 25, 1997
SUBJECT: REQUEST CITY COMMISSION APPROVAL AND RESOLUTION
TO ALLOW PARTICIPATION IN THE COUNTY PRO-RATA
GRANTS PROGRAM.
Each year the County E.M.S. Program makes Pro-Rata funds available to licensed E.M.S.
Providers. To utilize these non-matching funds we must submit an application
requesting the purchase of equipment which is not budgeted through the City and a
supporting resolution from the City Commission. The resolution is needed to demonstrate
that the Delray Beach Fire and Emergency Medical Services Department, in fact,
represents the Emergency Medical Services for the City and that the equipment purchased
with these funds expands and improves the level of care provided to our citizens.
For FY 97-98 we wish to purchase Nine ( 9 ), Twelve lead ECG Monitors/Defibrillators
with Cardiac Pacing and other accessories. We currently do not have the interpretive
diagnostic capability or the computer enhanced process to record and archive all of the
diagnostic data. With this non-matching grant we will have the technology needed to
record and archive all the interpretive diagnostic data and will allow our department to
interface with the county-wide Cardiac Alert Program to enhance patient care.
We request this item be placed on the August 5, 1997 agenda. A copy of the proposed
resolution is attached for review.
