10 Sawyer County Communications System Specialist - February 218 PS Committee Report 1.) Radio System Update - Testing is underway (see next section) and some fine tuning is taking place. A slight issue has been noticed with Pipestone and am checking regarding to correcting it. The first major test is going to be used by City of Hayward traffic for the Bfrkie. A key thing to. remember is that the system was designed for mobile coverage at 95% throughout the county with reliable transmissions at 95% of the time. 2.) Radio System Testing - A testing plan has been created and it focuses on 45 individual test locations throughout the county. This deals with locations along the main roadways for these locations and covers ALL the areas. Mobile coverage is always really good due to it being 5 watts with an antenna on the roof or trunk of the car. Testing went one step further and has all been done with portable coverage only so far. As for the portable coverage it has been done to simulate an officer using his radio in the center of a 2, sq ft building with a fully charged radio, standard antenna, holding it about five feet high. The reason this has been done is that coverage in this fashion is a good baseline as street level coverage will be better and mobile will be even better. Coverage is also being done with deputies with a concentration of areas of poor or no WSCOM coverage. As it sits right now we have coverage in the Sheriff' s Dept/Jail/Squad Room, Courthouse, Wal Mart, Hospital, and Marketplace. These locations have had little to no WSCOM coverage and now.either have extremely improved coverage or coverage where non-existed prior. Coverage testing will still continue over the next few weeks, 3.) Timeline for Training/mplementation - Squad prep, fleetmaps, Digital D'~, arid training are all part of this project. Soon this will start on a one by one basis for squad work, testing, reprogramming. Then training will begin soon after that point Submitted by: John Kruk- Contracted Communications System Specialist for Sawyer County

11 Mitch Rice Sawyer County Ambulance Director SAWYER COUNTY Thursday, February 1, 218 To:. Public Safety Committee 161 Main Street, Suite Hayward, W Phone Toll Free Fax ambulance@sawyercountygov.org Subject: January 218 Report Event Coverage and Community Events: -High School Sporting Events -Multiple Ski Events -Snow Cross snowmobile event at the casino -Assisted Living Facility wellness checks Operations: Continued preparations for the Birkie and other events upcoming. We have more coord.ination this year with event developers which will help streamline the medical response during the events. We were advised at the last meeting by an event coordinator that Sawyer County has a more well laid medical response plan than that of Lam beau Field on game day or any other large scale event that he coordinates. Operations in the southern part of the county continue to run smoothly; We had a meeting with our billing company. We have been able to continue to improve on collections with revenues becoming more consistent with predicted numbers. We are currently fully staffed at all levels of practice. One of our Advanced EMT' s has elected to take FLMA and is expected to deliver her 1st child any day. would like to extend a "Kudos" to our ambulance crews last night. They were requested to respond to a female in active labor. When they arrived on scene the situation was quite intense. They were able to stabilize the situation and safely transport the woman to Rusk County Memorial Hospital (the closest facility) and assisted the Emergency room staff with the delivery of a healthy child. We continue to facilitate transfers from Rusk County and Hayward hospital on an "every other day" schedule. This was the wishes of Hayward ho.spital in an effort to keep Great Divide ambulance as a consistent resource for their transport needs. When this process began last summer, created an MOU with Rusk County Memorial to facilitate their advanced life support transport needs on the opposite days of the week to continue a steady revenue flow. This arrangement has worked nicely so far. More progress has been made with the Ojibwa building site. Having been to the site recently, am very pleased with the work that has been done by our Highway Department... thank you. am proposing that we add a fixed heli-pad to the south end of the Ojibwa building site.there is. plenty of room and the costs are minimal. This will create a much safer situation when loading

12 patients into helicopters in the southern part of the county. We will no longer have to shut down the roadways for prolonged periods of time. Our Officers and Fire Department personnel will also be safer by not having to stand in the roadways directing traffic while medical interventions are being performed. This Heli-Pad will create a safer working environment for all emergency services. am researching the actual costs of the Heli-Pad now. hope to bring those costs to the next Public Safety meeting. Fleet Update: Cold weather is tough on equipment. We have had more vehicle issues this month but have been able to operate without interruption or delays. We have one ambulance in the shop right now but all other fleet vehicles are running fine. We anticipate the arrival of the new Paramedic vehicles soon. We do not have a definite date however. Tim H. advised me that the new ambulance should be arriving sometime next month. January Response Log: Billable Calls Local 911 Calls - 84 nter-facility Transports June 217======21 Calls July 217======24 Calls August 21 7====218 Calls We are not seeing a seasonal slowdown this year.
