H. Nabr"y, Sr. '.d/I'/II..L" <br /> <br />Ambulanc" Service int he Cabarrus County portion of <br />Enochvill" Fire Dis tric t <br /> <br />April 12, 1988 <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />Enochville Fire and Rescu" is locat"d in Rowan County just west of the <br />City of Kannapolis. Enochville Fir" district extends into Cabarrus County <br />in the area of Nooresville Road, Charlie \Ialker Road, and Tuckaseegee Road. <br /> <br />Under statute l53A-250-A-1 the commissioners may grant a franchise <br />to operate an ambulance under terms set by the Board of Commissioners. The <br />ambulance must be operated in compliance I~ith GS 130-26, "hich gives the <br />North Carolina Nedical Care Commission authority to make rules and regulations <br />regarding ambulances and their operation, <br /> <br />Funding for the Enochville operation comes from the fire district "hich <br />is approved under GS 69-25 ,l7 , This sec tion s ta tes tha t monies coll"c ted in <br />the fire tax district may be used by th" fire department to provide rescue <br />and ambulance s"rvices. <br /> <br />Enochville meets th" above stat"d criteria, so I would recommend that <br />they be dispatched to medical calls in the portion of their district that lies <br />in Cabarrus County. Cabarrus County is required to provide paramedic level <br />service to this area so coordination between Enochville Rescue and Cabarrus <br />County E~IS will be necessary. <br /> <br />fly specific recommendations are as follo"s: <br /> <br />1 - Enochville Rescue should be dispatched on all emergency medical <br />and rescue calls within their fire district. <br />2 - Upon arrival at a c.all scene, Enochville will contact the responding <br />Cabarrus ENS unit and advise of the patient's condition. <br />3 - if the patient is critical and is being transported to Cabarrus <br />Hospital, Enochville will start the transport, meet with a Cabarrus <br />ENS paramedic unit, take a param"dic on-board th"ir unit and proc"d" <br />to the hospital. <br /> <br />If these proposals are follow"d, the residents of the Enochvill" Fire <br />District "ill receive quick"r medical and rescue service and "ill still receive <br />paramedic level service when r"quired, <br /> <br />BHN,Sr./gn <br /> <br />u-I <br /> <br />I <br />
