Pages will go out when this is happening. Please keep in mind while all communications are on Fire West, we need to keep transmissions at a minimum because the channel can get very busy. ******
General Ambulance Issues (Becky): In regards to Patient Care Reports, please dont hate the messenger if you are contacted with questions on your report. There is a very small window to get reports done and sent to Becky (24 hrs), then she only has 24 hrs to review them and send into the state.
