Kiowa County EMS Service to Participate in Community Planning Project

The Kiowa County EMS service has been chosen by the Colorado Rural Health Center to participate in the state's Emergency Medical Services Community Planning Project.

Please mark this on your calendar and attend this important meeting on Tuesday, February 10, 2004 starting at 5:30 p.m. in the courthouse meeting room. Refreshment will be served.

EMS agencies need to function as a member of their community. When people call for medical help, they expect a rapid response, competent staff, and good equipment. Often the Hollywood version of what we see on TV becomes what we expect. The purpose of the project is to provide emergency medical services (EMS) with a clear understanding of their customers; the needs of those customers and how to cost effectively meet those needs.

 

Kiowa County EMS will be conducting a variety of surveys that will include input from the media, school systems, law enforcement agencies, medical facilities, and most importantly the public.

For more information Please contact Eunice M. Weber Ambulance Director Kiowa County at 719-438-5900.
