Summary of Request

The Public Health (PH) Department requests Board approval of the Agreement with Anderson Valley Community Services District to allow for a continuation of the Advanced Life Support (ALS) Enhancement Pilot Project in Boonville and surrounding areas. Initially expected to be a one-year project, approval of these funds dates back to Fiscal Year 2014-15, when the Board of Supervisors approved Memorandums of Understanding with service providers in vulnerable and underserved communities in Mendocino County to sustain and enhance ALS and emergency medical services. 

 

The proposed Agreement with Anderson Valley Community Services District outlines expectations for Fiscal Year 2022-23, including provisions of the following:

1)                     A detailed Agreement describing the partnership with an ALS Provider

2)                     Monthly reports exhibiting ALS staffing supported with projects funds

3)                     Quarterly reports, including financial, describing specific ALS enhancements that have been achieved within the system

4)                     Lists of training opportunities, educational opportunities, or specific equipment/supply enhancements made possible through the Agreement

5)                     A one-time detailed report upon conclusion of the Agreement describing challenges, opportunities and successes

As outlined in California Health and Safety Code (Division 2.5, Chapter 4, Article 1, Sections 1797.200 - 1797.229), each county must designate a Local Emergency Medical Services Agency (LEMSA) for administration of emergency medical services. Oversight by the LEMSA includes responsibility for implementation of ALS systems and monitoring of training programs. Pursuant to these guidelines, Mendocino County’s LEMSA has consulted with Public Health to develop the ALS Enhancement Pilot Project and cosigned the proposed Agreement.
