Fuel Cards — Deployed to All Vehicles
All vehicles in the fleet are now outfitted with fuel cards. To get gas (or diesel), enter the card at the pump. It will ask you for mileage and a vehicle number (e.g .6139, 0051, 0052, etc.). As a reminder, ALWAYS triple check that you’re putting the correct type of fuel in the vehicle (diesel vs. gasoline).

emsCharts Changes
There are a number of things that have changed in emsCharts that you will need to be aware of going forward. See the attached PDF for further details.
Reaching the On-Duty Supervisor
Calling in sick? Going to be late? Have a question while on-shift? To reach the on-duty supervisor 24/7, dial: 585-698-3057. This number will always route you to the operations officer on-duty (or on call). Please do not call one of the stations directly. Thank you.
Important Changes to ALS Bag & Primary Response Bag
Effective immediately, you will notice in the PRB that the D50 and 250cc NS have been removed and a 250cc bag of D10 has replaced it. Going forward, we will be using premixed D10 and not mixing D50 into NS ourselves. The remainder of the D50 in the ALS bag will be replaced with D10 on bag check day 1/1. Additionally, promethazine and procainamide are being removed from the ALS bag on 1/1. Finally, Glucagon is going from a stock of two to just one in each tackle box.
