Transfer crews will be dispatched in the following order:
- Emergency transfers will be treated the same as emergency runs. The emergency crew or transfer crew will take the transfer. If no crew is left at the station and Station 50 has a crew, 51 should be brought to Station 20. If there is no crew at either station the responding crew will contact dispatch and tell them that no crew is available so that NMVFD can cover calls.
- Transfer crew will take transfers up to the time their shift ends.
- Station 50, if they have a crew at the station.
- Station 30.
- Call shift individuals.
- Standby individuals in order of seniority.
- Part timers with under 40 hours worked.
- Full timers in order of seniority.
- Emergency crew if transfer is in an area including Wheeling and Marietta or closer.
The hospital should be contacted prompltly and given a progress report. Any changes should be called in to the hospital. Tell the hospital what the estimated time of arrival or that you are still arranging for a crew. Do not give them details such as that you will be getting dinner before arriving.
