Department Approval <br />`/�'�!`� G�7.� <br />Item Description <br />BACKGROUND <br />1�� <br />REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION <br />Date: June 16, 2014 <br />Item No.: 7.d <br />City Manager Approval <br />��..-���. <br />Fire Department & Northeast Metro Intermediate District 916 Medical <br />Training Program Agreement <br />The Fire Department was approached by Northeast Metro Intermediate School District #916 to <br />seek assistance in providing real life education for their Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) <br />students. As part of the EMT program, each student is required to participate in a ride-a-long <br />session with a medical response agency. <br />Northeast Metro Intermediate School District #916 was impressed with the medial service <br />provided by Roseville Fire and the overall professionalism of the department. They reached out <br />to the department because they felt they could develop a good partnership with Roseville Fire to <br />assist in the training of their future generations of students. <br />The students are scheduled for a 10 to 12 hour shift to ride-a-long with the Roseville Fire EMTs. <br />This is coordinated between the lead instructor and fire administration. The students are allowed <br />to assist with only those medical interventions they are trained to perform, under the guidance <br />and oversight of a Roseville Fire Department member. <br />All students are required to complete a liability waiver as part of the scheduling process. It is <br />signed by their parents if they are under the age of 18. They are also required to list emergency <br />contact numbers prior to the beginning of their ride-along shift. <br />An agreement was created, reviewed and approved by the City Attorney. A copy of the <br />agreement is attached. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACTS <br />There are no financial impacts associated with this agreement. <br />STAFF RECOMMENDATION <br />Staff recommends Council approve the agreement with Northeast Metro Intermediate District <br />#916 for teaching assistance via a ride-along program for their EMT students. <br />Page 1 of 2 <br />
