Pass On access issues

All- 

The helpdesk ticket that was submitted to County IT was investigated and then passed to FRS IT. Neither were able to find any issues with it being blocked on the county network. 

That being said, if it happens again please have personnel take a screen shot of the screen that you get and send it to me so I can further the discussion. Unless it happens again and that's provided the issue is closed at this point.

EMS Advancement - EMT Glenny De la Cruz to Driver Status


BVFD Team -


Please join me in congratulating EMT Glenn De la Cruz on becoming our latest EMS Unit Driver!!

Glenny joined the BVFD in January of 2016 and has been consistently taking training classes to earn her status as EMT in Charge and now as an Emergency EMS Driver.  Glenny completed EVOC, then began working through the BVFD cognitive and practical examinations (on our Ambulance, emergency laws, area streets, and hospital running routes). The final training phase required her to demonstrate proficiency driving on numerous emergency calls under the evaluation of an experienced Driver. Glenny drove on a wide variety of emergency calls, including hospital transports to meet the final requirements and earn Emergency Driver status. The BVFD salutes her hard work and constant dedication. 

We salute EMT De la Cruz for her dedication and commitment to service.


Chief Ryman and I salute all of the BVFD personnel who have consistently provided vital staffing throughout the pandemic.  Keep up the good work!

Subject: FS #15 and FS #32 Diesel Fuel Pumps
 
  • The diesel pump at FS #15 will need to be replaced.  The vendor is sourcing the product, and then will need to go through the purchasing process.  It is my understanding from the vendor that all rigs at 15 are filled in the evening.  The vendor recommends that this practice stop until such time the pump can be replaced (it is overheating).

 

  • The diesel pump at FS #32 will need to be replaced.  After a few recent service calls, the vendor did some additional research and found that the pump is specifically designed for E85 gasoline; not diesel and the problem has now caught up to us.  The County, in its infinite wisdom, chose a proprietary fuel system for FS #32, and therefore sourcing a replacement will take a bit more doing (the vendor is working on this).  Diesel at FS #32 is OOS for the next couple of weeks.

 

Please pass along to whoever you see fit.
