FROM: Robert Rehr, Fire Chief
DATE: July 29, 1996
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 96-97 we wish to purchase one (1) Lifepak 11 with 12 lead adapter. The addition
of this 12 lead capable portable EKG, defibrillator and pacing device will enhance our
ability to interpret, diagnose and record EKG rhythms and thereby improve our treatment
for the patient who is in the process of having a myocardial infarction. The current price
for this unit is $16,500; however, with the trading in of an older unit, the price will be
$7,400 which will be paid for with grant funds.
We request this item be placed on the August 6, 1996 agenda. A copy of the proposed
resolution is attached for review.

Executive Summary:
Identify, in order of' priority, how this request will improve and expand EMS.
The addition of 12 lead capable portable EKG, defribrillator and pacing
devices is well proven. The enhancement with devices that interpret,
diagnose and record EKG rythmns will improve our treatment for the
patient in the pro~ess of having a myocardial infarction ( MI or heart
attack).
This unit will be a start, via a trade-in, to move to standardize all
of our units.
