Equipment Standardization Update

All of the ambulances except for 6119 and 6129 have been standardized along with this the

ambulance check sheets have been updated to reflect the changes that have been made. Please

review these documents to become familiar with the location of equipment, as some items may have

moved. In each ambulance, you will find a list of equipment attached to the cabinets that reflect the

content of each cabinet. You may also note that the seals on the cabinets have dates written on them

- these dates indicate the soonest expiration date of an item in that cabinet. The seals/dates should

be checked at the start of your shift during your rig check. If you find a seal that indicates an item is

expired, you must go through that cabinet to replace the item and update the seal with the next item

to expire; there is no need to break all of the seals on a routine basis. If you break a seal during your

shift, prior to the end of your shift please reseal the cabinet and write the expiration date of the

soonest expiring item in that cabinet on the seal. Thank you for your patience and understanding

during this process. As always, suggestions are welcome and should be submitted via the link for

equipment comments on the intranet homepage. Please see attached PDF to see the updated

ambulance check sheets.
