BARRINGTON FIRE & RESCUE, EMS DIVISION

On February 13th 1978, the town of Barrington established the Barrington Emergency Medical Services (BEMS). Over the years the service has evolved from a transport service to one of pre-hospital care, and from Emergency Medical Technicians and First Responders to Advanced EMTs, Intermediates and Paramedics. This advanced training has changed the entire scope of care that our service can provide for our community. The Barrington Fire & Rescue, EMS Division will endeavor continue to provide this level of care.

In 1998, the town Selectmen elected to change the BEMS ambulance/association into a Town Department with one spokesperson, chosen by them, and one spokesperson for the Association, chosen by the Association. The division produced the Barrington Ambulance Department headed by a Chief, and the Barrington Emergency Medical Services Association headed by a President. Association members are voted in by the Association and do not have to hold current pre-hospital certifications, (EMT/CPR). Ambulance members can be a part of the Association, if they so choose. The Ambulance members are approved by the Chief and must maintain current certifications.

On July 11, 2007 a Memorandum of Understanding was signed outlined the changes in Barrington’s Fire and Ambulance Departments, which we expect to be fully implemented as of September 30, 2007. The intent was to have a seamless installation of the Ambulance Department into the Fire Department as a separate Division. The new Barrington Fire & Rescue Department (BF&R) will have two Divisions, one Fire Division and one EMS Division, under the Fire Chief. Both of the original structures of the separate Departments will stay intact under the Division organization structure. All Officers, Lines of Command and Procedures/Guidelines will remain in force for each Division. Each Divisions Members will be considered fully vested Members in both Divisions and be entitled to the associated benefits and responsibilities of Membership in accordance with each Divisions Procedures and Guidelines.

The Fire Chief will have the ultimate responsibility for both Divisions of the Fire & Rescue Department, but will delegate all of the operations of the EMS Division to the EMS Chief. All EMS related communication will go through the EMS Chief to disseminate, as appropriate.

This evolution of the Town’s Emergency Services is a natural one and, with everyone’s cooperation, will go smoothly. Please feel free to contact either the Fire Chief or the EMS Chief if you have any questions.

The above described changes are contingent on final approval of the Board of Selectmen.

Barrington Ambulance is primarily staffed by Volunteers. The Town, in 2007, hired one daytime EMT in the position of Fire Chief to anchor the day time response. In 2008 we are requesting the Town hire one additional EMT/Firefighter to work for the Fire Chief to better assure both EMS and Fire coverage during the daytime hours.

We work from a pager system and are dispatched through Strafford County Dispatch in Dover. We work hand in hand with Fire and Police personnel. When there are no Responders available a mutual-aid system has been established with the surrounding communities. The Ambulance Responders follow established State and Local protocols. The Division also has its own established Standard Operating Guidelines. As the title suggests, these are operating guidelines that are followed by the members. Not every situation or event is listed in the SOGs and it is expected that all members use common sense when handling situations or events. Remember that you are a Barrington “Employee”, even though you are volunteering your time, you still are representing the Town of Barrington. The SOGs are guidelines that provide general information and are updated as warranted.

The following sections are the current Standard Operating Guidelines. Every new member is on a temporary Six Month Probation. They are not allowed to use warning devices, as stated in the guidelines. During this time the member is evaluated on his/her performance. Any time during this period the EMS Chief may terminate the probationary member. After the probationary period, any member can be terminated by the EMS Chief for cause, such as not following the SOGs, and/or State/Local Protocols. At that time the member will surrender all property owned by the Department.

The guidelines outlined in this booklet are designed to help everyone understand how we operate. The SOGs contain outlines on how to use specific equipment and how to respond to specific events. By not following the outlined SOGs a Responder will lose the rights associated with them.

10. RESPONDING

After the tones:

If you have a portable/mobile radio, sign on with Dispatch.

Tell dispatch your Call Sign (900#) and destination (PSB or the scene).

If you must pass the Building to get to the scene, check and make sure someone has already picked up the Ambulance.

In the Ambulance:

Notify Dispatch that the Ambulance is on the air at the “Basic”, “Intermediate” or “Paramedic” level and ask if anyone else is en-route to the bay.

If only one EMT signs on ask Dispatch to re-tone, per Protocol.

After a crew of at least TWO LICENSED Providers is confirmed, proceed to the scene with the ambulance using the appropriate response.

Ask Dispatch, or any on scene Responder, for an update on the patient’s condition.

In order to TRANSPORT a patient there must be two licensed Providers, including at least ONE EMT on board to supervise patient care.

If additional help is needed, RADIO AHEAD OF TIME, it can always be cancelled. Reference our INTERCEPT PROTOCOL.

Frisbie and McGregor Paramedics are under an agreement to respond to Barrington daytime calls. If we have a crew, we can cancel them. They most likely will go to the scene to evaluate the patient.

If we call for an Intercept, the Paramedics will usually work in our ambulance with their equipment.

If no crew is available:

Mutual Aid will be notified, per our Dispatch Protocols, that there are no responders and they are to take the call. Barrington Police (for medical) or Barrington Fire (for MVAs) will act as first responders, if they are available.

If there is only one responder:

They are to take their personal vehicle to the scene to assist with medical care until the Mutual Aid ambulance arrives.

Do not respond with the ambulance, unless a full crew is expected.

If a Fire Officer or Police Officer request a Mutual Aid Ambulance:

Do not cancel the Mutual Aid service until you have the entire story. There may be a good reason for the request.

Radio the Officer on Town Local and ask for an update.

The Mutual Aid service is not to be canceled until the situation is evaluated and the need for the other service is assessed.

Act professionally, the Officers are looking out for the patient and the care they need.

For continuing education courses and expenses, the request for reimbursement must be in writing and submitted to the EMS Chief before the course begins. Each member may be allotted up to an amount calculated by multiplying the number of Incentive Points earned by $1.00, per calendar year (January to December). Additional reimbursements will depend on the amount of available funds.

MILEAGE/EXPENSES (This Section may be deleted in 2008)

All Licensed Providers are eligible for a fixed personal vehicle mileage reimbursement.

Due to the variability in response patterns and routes the EMS Chief has made the following “deemed reckoning” for expense reporting purposes based on the Town’s current (40.5 cents) per mile reimbursement.

1. All Responders on scene, ready, willing and able to perform as a Licensed Provider will be logged with ten (10) miles, total round trip for the call.

2. All Responders transporting the Patient to the Hospital in the Ambulance will be logged with twenty (20) miles, total round trip for the call.

INCENTIVE PAYMENTS (This Section may be revised in 2008 to include a fixed Point value of $15)

Starting in 2006, and continuing as long as included in the Town approved budget, all Members (excluding paid Staff) with current Providers Licenses will be eligible for “Incentive Payments” based on the following Point System.

1. One point will be recorded for each Responder on scene, ready, willing and able to perform as a Licensed Provider.

2. A second point will be recorded for each Responder on scene, ready, willing and able to perform as a Licensed Provider on daytime calls weekdays from 05:00 thru 17:00.

3. One additional point will be recorded for each Responder transporting a Patient to the Hospital in the Ambulance.

4. Points will be accrued by the Responders from January 1st thru December 31st of the current year and recorded by the EMS Chief based on Run Log form entries.

5. The total number of points accrued by all Responders will be divided into the current Incentive amount budgeted. The resultant will be multiplied by each Responder’s individual point accrual to calculate the Responder’s payment.

6. During the first week in January the EMS Chief will submit an individual payment voucher to the Town for each eligible Responder.

7. Any questions on the results of the above process shall be presented to the EMS Chief in writing. If the question can not be resolved by the EMS Chief, the question shall be forwarded to the Town Administrator for final disposition.
