Expanding the first response capability to an ALS level also increases the training <br />our EMT-B trained personnel would receive through our medical direction. <br />Regions EMS provides continuing education at numerous sites around the <br />region that is tailored to the BLS and ALS providers alongside each other at <br />training sessions. <br />Along with the expanded level of care our staff could provide, our department <br />has a need to expand our EMS charting capabilities. This need exists today, and <br />our current reporting system is limited in its capability for charting EMS calls to <br />the extent we would want to track data and do quality assurance reviews of the <br />care our members provide. <br />Towards the end of 2025 our current fire reporting system, ImageTrend, will <br />undergo a transition from the National Fire Incident Reporting System (NFIRS) <br />to a new standard called the National Emergency Response Information System <br />(NERIS). This transition is still being planned out and we don't fully know the impact. Any reporting <br />solutions we choose to utilize in the future must have NERIS reporting capability and additional EMS <br />charting capability. <br />
