Important Information

 
Your Agency is in jeopardy of losing its ability to receive DOH training funds

(sending your members to CFR, EMT-B members for FREE)

YOUR ACTION IS NEEDED NOW.

The New York State Department of Health is in the process of updating records; each BLS Agency has or will soon receive a “packet” that needs to be completed within 60 days.  The packet includes an Agency update form as well as Public Access Defibrillation Notice of Intent and Epinephrine Auto Injector Notice of Intent.  These forms must be completed and returned by October 1.  In addition if your Agency is listed as a Regionally Approved Albuteral Agency this form must also be completed and returned.

In most cases The Program Agency has maintained a copy of your file and can assist you with this project. Someone from the Faxton – St. Luke’s will be contacting you shortly to determine what assistance we can offer you.  We have packets available at the office and can help you keep your agency current.

YOUR STATE EMS ID NUMBER WILL BE TERMINATED BY NEW YORK STATE ON OCTOBER 1 IF YOU DO NOT COMPLETE THIS PROCESS

The process of getting a new state issued EMS number is both slow and difficult.  Your current and future CFR’s. and EMT’s will be required to pay for EMS Training.
