HomeMy WebLinkAbout1992-09-22 - AGENDA REPORTS - SC AMBULANCE CONCERN (2)20607 West.Soleded Canyon Road SANTA CLARITA AMBULANCE [a051251-3111 • Canyon Country, California 91351 On July 23, 1990 we first expressed concern with the dispatch procedure that relayed vital response information for the Santa Clarita Valley to Wilson Ambulance, in Palmdale, prior to being received at our dispatch office in Canyon Country. Not having received any reply we then restated our original message of concern and copied the Department of Health Services. All subsequent expressions of continued concern and difficulty were - first addressed to the contractor and copied to the Department of Health Services. To date we have expressed concerns with over 475 incidents of dispatch procedure flaws that have encumbered our ability to respond to the medical emergency in an efficient manner consistent with contract requirements. Although representatives from Wilson Ambulance service and the Department of Health Services have publicly stated that they have reviewed our concerns and have determined that there is no problem, I confirm to you today, as I have previously stated, that no individual from Wilson Ambulance or the Department of Health Services has ever visited our office to review our records or listen to our taped recordings with regard to our expressed concerns about the dispatch procedure. As we continued to press our concerns, wehave obtained 'call history' computer printouts from the 9-1-1 dispatch center. These call histories confirm, beyond all reasonable doubt,`that delays in receiving the accurate and complete 9-1-1 response information relayed through the Palmdale offices of Wilson Ambulance continue to occur at an alarming rate. We believe that these records, have been available to the county's DHS as well as the contractor for zone J00), yet neither have requested nor reviewed such when considering our dispatch concerns. These printouts clearly demnonstrate that when ground ambulances are dispatched directly via computer, our community would enjoy enhanced levels of service and more efficient response times. Response information on these call history printouts contain all that is essential for the efficient delivery of ambulance services such as; complete addresses, correct spelling, cross street references and fire department area of "first in" .jurisdiction. This information is precisely what is being lost during the dispatch relay procedure now in use. proudly serving Canyon Country • Castaic • Newhall • Santa Clarita • Saugus • Valencia member American Ambulance Association Considerable attention has been focused on the recently completed administrative audit of contractor and subcontractor performance/response times. This audit merely confirms that, contract participants, both contractor and sub contractor, have performed to a minimum standard as required by the 'Master Contract. We do not believe that these 9-1-1 call history records were ever reviewed or considered as evidence during this audit process. As has been publicly announced by Wilson Ambulance, they have chosen to deal with this public safety issue by canceling our service agreement. As such, we have taken preliminary steps to comply with our contract for 9-1-1 ambulance service to the City of Santa'Clarita.i-..;4Unless'.'and'''unti I' We directly dispatched, via computery'ath'i's same] dilemma will prevail for all 9-1-1 responses ;within'the=•City'�.lof Santa Clarita. On behalf of the residents of'lthe'Santa Clarita Valley and more specifically, the City of Santa Clarita we have'.but one request; 1) That the City of Santa Clarita join forces with the Castaic'Town Council and the residents of our valley to insist' that the4contract'for Zone J(10) not be renewed pending a thorough public investigation of this most import ant'�,public'safety'issue.

Antonovich Supervisor, 5th District Hall. of Administration, Room 869 500. W. Temple Los Angeles, California 90012 Dear Supervisor Antonovich: Please consider this letter to be my firm support for NEWHALL/SANTA CLARITA AMBULANCE and that I fully reject Wilson Ambulance Service as the primary provider for the Santa Clarita Valley. Wilson Ambulance has not demonstrated any reasonable approach to resolving the many concerns expressed by NEWHALL/SANTA CLARITA AMBULANCE that directly affect their ability to respond to a medical emergency in the Santa Clarita Valley. Wilsons cancellation notice to Newhall/Santa Clarita Ambulance is purely retaliatory and should be -'reviewed by your office. It is my request that you implement the necessary changes to the contract for Zone J(10) that will insure that; 1) Newhall/Santa Clarita Ambulance be directly dispatched via computer. 2) That our public monies for the indigent—ill and dry runs. be properly distributed to the provider delivering the service. 3) Immediate consideration and planningbetaken to separate the Santa Clarita-Valley from Zone J(10). Finally, I requestthat the contract for Zone J(10) NOT BE RENEWED -pending a thorough investigation by your office for possible violation of public policy and ethical conduct by the contractor that has precipitated this public safety crisis. I look forward to your responsive attention to this matter. Sincerely, C) cc: Truman F. Chaffin, EMS Robert C.
