Just for clarity, does this apply to EMS units?

No, for a couple reasons. Under DOH regs, the minimum staffing is always 2 providers and secondly, this is designed to provide the IC with the number of firefighting/ rescue personnel.

Now if a company doesnt belong to the FCFCA do they have to give their staffing or is it a countywide standard?

There's no issue of "belonging" to the Association.
If you run a call into this county, you follow the standard.

so what your saying is that it is a countywide standard OK, what the hell is the problem here? This has been on here for how long? Everybody was asked to give their opinion and no one said a damned thing. Now, it's adopted and some assholes decide to get on here, make total a$$es of themselves and not even have the balls to register. Man, I tire of the idiots easily these days.

If you run a call into this county, you follow the standard. Now this is sort of funny, no I am serious. I haven't heard the following Companies complying with the standard since it was put into effect. Co. 13 Co.14 Co.19

Jimmy, You should know that your daddy's department isn't running off post very much and if they do I would bet they will use the staffing standard. As far as 14 goes when was the last time you heard co. 14 get a call . Finally company 19 stay tuned to your scanner.

I know that my "Daddy's Fire Dept" would use the new staffing standard if they ran outside the old fence. I think that the new standard is great. I do have a little suggestion though. Make cards up for the front dash of each unit in the county with the following on it for the person that does not ride the front right seat very much. You know a memory jogger.
Example:
Engine 291 is responding with 4! Engine 291 is laying out at! Engine 291 is on the scene with
1. Side of building (I recommend the alpha beta charlie delta system) 2. Number of Stories 3. Building Construction 4. What do they see! 5. Then the staffing level is possible.

Byers Jimmy, Come on man, I don't know what fantasy island you live on but last time I checked, the volunteer fire service in Cumberland and Franklin County is staffed with approximately 35% retards. So take for instance the time of day when the real men are working, Or in your case the day. So here we have these retards that know everyones tones by heart sitting around watching their reruns of rescue me. And a call comes in, #1, I very doubt they can calm down enough to count more than themselves to give an accurate number, 2# finding a hydrant seems to be a difficult challenge these days so why make it harder by letting everyone know where you laid out, You have to learn to crawl before you walk.. 3# Do you really think they can find the place to start with ? (how do you read a run book) OK, so we finally get them on the scene, do you really think they are gonna be calm enough to remember what the side ? (Engine 291 is out front) Number of stories, refer to #1, ( "Truck #% is one the scene, I have a single story mobile home nothing evident" Don't laugh, this actually happened) And I will laugh my ass off when they come back with the building construction as vinyl siding,You know it's gonna happen sooner or later !! But I know this for a fact, no matter how much fire is actually there, with the miscommunication we have in these 2 counties it will be "fully involved". I'm just being a prick tonight..lol Can't you tell. JD
