ABS brake light came back on and check engine light is back on again too.

« Last post by Renaud, Ray on December 18, 2011, 02:42:58 pm »
The attached form is a copy of version 4 of the form A Code Status Attached checkbox was added to indicate that DNR paperwork was attached. An Other box and ALS/BLS check boxes have been added. The rules for using the form and previous versions of the form follow:
  • All fields must be filled out by the originating institution except for the EMS ID # which will be the Incident Number.
  • RN Signature is not needed if the physician prints their name and signs the form.
  • It is your responsibility to have the originating institution fill out all fields. Do not fill out any fields except for EMS ID #.

General Discussion / Director or not Director?
« Last post by shuggins on December 17, 2011, 10:46:28 pm »
When I call for an issue that needs director attention, I expect to talk to the director. I do not expect to be called by other co-workers or non-workers. I will not be communicating my issues to anyone else, unless it is Jim for trucks or Bill and Leslie for ordering. Thank You.

This means don't have one of my co-workers or an outsider call me because I'm not worth the time, or my issue is not worth the time. You should never be too busy for your employees.
