New Business: Tam reminded everybody that they need to have a responsible party to make sure the run reports are in on time. This could be the lead or primary EMT. Do not forget to use the scanner. If you need a refresher on how to use the scanner see Gayle. Marcia and Patti reported that the ambulance was a mess. Very muddy and dried blood was found on the window in the ambulance. FYI - - - DO NOT FORGET TO CLEAN THE AMBULANCE AFTER EACH RUN. Thank you.

In case of mechanical or other ambulance difficulties when on a run call the local fire department first, before a towing company for small jobs. A & L in Iron River also has a tow truck. Paul stated that the ambulance needs to have tow hooks both on the back and front of the ambulance.

Run review: Reviewed a few calls both full calls and non-transports.

No other new business to report.
