<br />Saint Cloud Fire Department, MN <br /> <br />Fire Protection Master Plan- Executive Summary Document <br /> <br />. Adopt performance objectives for emergency services that clearly define response performance <br /> <br />expectations in measurable terms. <br /> <br /> <br />. Discontinue the separation of the city into volunteer and career response areas. Develop a <br /> <br /> <br />dispatch plan that sends the closest appropriate response unit regardless of its career versus <br /> <br /> <br />paid-on-call status. <br /> <br /> <br />. Discontinue sending three response units to fire alarm activations. Send only a single engine <br /> <br /> <br />unless it is verified that an actual emergency is in progress. <br /> <br /> <br />. Consider adopting local law that creates a penalty for excessive numbers of false fire alarms at a <br /> <br />given location. <br /> <br /> <br />. The Saint Cloud Fire Department's distribution of resources and historical response time <br /> <br /> <br />performance indicates the agency could provide beneficial services to the City's emergency <br /> <br />medical system. An integration of fire and police first response at the basic life support level, along <br /> <br /> <br />with advanced life support paramedic transport services, will meet or exceed the NFPA 1710 <br /> <br />performance benchmarks for EMS services. This project should be moved forward. <br /> <br />Training Program Strategies <br /> <br />After completing the ten-objective evaluation of the Saint Cloud Fire Department, the following short <br />and mid-term strategies are offered as recommendations on issues related to the training programs of <br />the agency. Individual narrative text describing the issues associated with these recommendations <br />may be found in the appropriate sections of this report. <br /> <br />. Achieve State certified instructors for the Department; especially the Deputy Chief of Training and <br />Administration. <br />. Address the training disparity between the Career and Volunteer Divisions. A centralized, <br />consistent approach to accomplishing training for both Divisions needs to be implemented. <br />. Expand attendance opportunities at the NF A throughout the officer ranks and those developing <br />their officer skills. <br /> <br />Fire Prevention Strategies <br /> <br />After completing the ten-objective evaluation of the Saint Cloud Fire Department, the following short <br />and mid-term strategies are offered as recommendations on issues related to the fire prevention <br />programs of the agency. Individual narrative text describing the issues associated with these <br />recommendations may be found in the appropriate sections of this report. <br /> <br />20 <br />
