That was for police. There was originally a police call set up.
00:36
PSR requested you after that.
00:41
Copy. Do we have a medical complaint?
00:46
PSR 5, can you advise?
00:52
PSR-5 on Ops 1 PSR-5. We just need an e-val on a late infection.
01:03
For Informpharmac 3422, I don't believe we can do patient evals.
01:10
I believe that's a fire call, like a priority 5.
01:14
It's patient like transport, then that is when we are needed.
01:22
A medic 342, we can request fire out there, PSR5, unless I'm misunderstanding,
01:27
I believe that if transport is necessary to the hospital, then the medic would need to take them. Is that correct?
01:33
A patient is undecided on whether or not to be transported to the hospital until we can see if this is a serious situation or not.

342 copies that they would just like their vital shift.

Go ahead. We are not refusing, we were just trying to figure out what was going on.

Option 13, I copied all that traffic.
02:13
Because BLS appropriate, let's start a BLS unit to check their vital. They're requesting transport, the ELS unit can transport, and clear 42, keep the ALS for available.
02:24
That's copy. Starting a BLF and Medic 342, I'll show you available.
02:30
Opt one PSR5.
02:37
This is not for a vitals check, this is for a leg infection evaluation if she needs to go or not.
02:49
If I've copied that, we'll have the BLS unit continue and show the ALS unit available and if BLS advises that ALS is necessary, we'll get them started again.
02:59
Does that work for you?
03:01
Copy.
03:03
Copy. Happy. Thank you. 2146. Over and out.
