1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,000 Heat. Heat. 2 00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:26,840 of the United States of America. 3 00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:43,040 order. First order of business is approval of 4 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:50,559 the minutes of the November 18th regular meeting. Minutes have been circulated. 5 00:00:46,719 --> 00:00:56,520 Uh any comments, no additions or deletions? I entertain a 6 00:00:53,039 --> 00:00:56,520 motion to approve 7 00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:06,039 reading and approve. I guess I should say motion made and seconded. All in 8 00:01:02,239 --> 00:01:06,039 favor? Hi. 9 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:21,000 Annual structure updation 10 00:01:28,320 --> 00:01:35,720 service uh last month collected a total of 11 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,720 $141,69467. 12 00:01:38,079 --> 00:01:51,079 Um that process uh last year uh for a full year we 13 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:51,079 collected uh 1,920,30 14 00:01:53,840 --> 00:02:02,320 $18,3820 above our total collections for last 15 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:10,959 year not counting December. So we are doing much better this year last year. 16 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:17,440 Um and we are constantly working to enhance our reports trying to enhance 17 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:23,120 our collections for that. So, uh, working on rentals, uh, for the 18 00:02:20,640 --> 00:02:28,640 month, uh, we did a total our our numbers show that 19 00:02:26,239 --> 00:02:35,440 we had a total including Green County Rescue contracts with us. Our total run 20 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:39,519 volume was uh, 430 runs and that we had a total of 392 21 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:46,319 transports. Um, however, as I'm constantly 22 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:51,440 evaluating and looking at one thing I have been working on since I took over 23 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:56,800 last year and a half months was uh, anytime our cruiser dispatch, they need 24 00:02:54,080 --> 00:03:02,319 to generate around. Uh, when I first started, we had over 25 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:08,640 900 calls a month getting pulled off the C, which is a problem. Um, if if there's 26 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:16,080 an incident, we get dispatched, too. and it's a legal incident 27 00:03:11,599 --> 00:03:20,720 report and there's nothing there. Um I'm consistently working on it. Uh last 28 00:03:18,239 --> 00:03:27,360 month I had 60 calls. So we had basically half and continually we're 29 00:03:24,159 --> 00:03:34,640 working on that. Our goal is to get zero. Um our biggest problem right now 30 00:03:30,640 --> 00:03:40,959 is our part staff realizing that all we do here it needs to be done. so that we 31 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:47,200 actually have true numbers. Um, and just by research, I can't uh give you an 32 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:52,080 exact number, but uh I I can't verify that we actually did over 500 calls last 33 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:55,080 month. I can't get you an exact number because 34 00:03:55,360 --> 00:04:02,799 we're working on it as multiple ways. One is to show how 35 00:04:00,239 --> 00:04:07,599 busy we are. Number two, as effective as we apply for grants because they don't 36 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:12,319 see real time animation. So we are working on that. It might somebody out 37 00:04:10,319 --> 00:04:16,799 there that needs a fast run and you have to send an ambulance from somewhere else 38 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:21,120 farther away because your first ambulance is going to get a signal 9 39 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:27,680 closest one run is going to get a signal 9 but you don't know that cuz 40 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:32,880 why did you get this ambulance over here when you could have got this one. So, 41 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:38,720 um, that's something my staff and I made yesterday on and, uh, I told we got to 42 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:42,800 get to zero. It's just it's a work. We've done it in half, but half isn't 43 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:47,199 good enough yet. So, uh, that's something that we are continually 44 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:53,360 working on. So, I have a question actually related to that 45 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:59,759 last one. Last meeting you had 26 transports long distance. 46 00:04:55,919 --> 00:04:59,759 What constitutes long distance? 47 00:05:03,923 --> 00:05:05,943 » [music] 48 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:19,759 » 72. So I usually average 70 65 to 75 transfers every month. You guys 49 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:23,680 take almost all of them. So So we did 72 last month. Those calls were long 50 00:05:21,759 --> 00:05:31,919 distance transfers at Evansville, Indie, Henderson, wherever they may be. So 51 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:36,720 yeah, um we are updating the system. I thought there's something as far as 52 00:05:35,039 --> 00:05:45,800 there is problems there. We're trying to fix it. I'm on the phone with ESO trying 53 00:05:42,639 --> 00:05:45,800 to fix 54 00:05:47,759 --> 00:05:55,639 the station dispatch somewhere. So, 55 00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:04,400 um, we went by the commissioners this morning. Um, we had in our budget last 56 00:06:01,199 --> 00:06:09,400 year to buy an ambulance and we didn't buy one. What we did is we had some 57 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:09,400 costes 58 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:21,039 between that equipment budget and repair to combine that uh to start upgrading 59 00:06:19,280 --> 00:06:25,759 our monitors. Commissioners approve us this morning to build up three of them. 60 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:30,240 Uh they're on the tail end of the lifespan. We're having trouble with our 61 00:06:27,759 --> 00:06:35,720 transmission. We had two standings last week. Uh both of them were taken from 62 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,720 scr 63 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:48,240 and things like that. So uh commissioners approve sign purchase 64 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:54,560 order that money will be carried over and you have to have invoice to do 65 00:06:52,720 --> 00:07:02,199 it if we can't get an invoice to deliver. So [clears throat] they will be 66 00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:02,199 uh we're going to carry that money over 67 00:07:02,319 --> 00:07:12,080 additional appropriation to use that money back in uh purchase monitors which 68 00:07:08,479 --> 00:07:15,080 comes to the three monitors come to $3,780. 69 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:24,240 Now what he has spent even though it was over $5,000 out of his own budget was 70 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:28,560 fine was it? It's the extra the additional appropriations over 5 has to 71 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:33,759 go to you guys first. Can we get that advertised for the 29th? We have the 72 00:07:30,639 --> 00:07:37,960 meeting the 29th this month. We can we can get it all over 73 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:43,120 your January meeting before you can approve. 74 00:07:40,639 --> 00:07:48,039 » Yeah, we can. Yeah, that'll be the end of January 75 00:07:45,039 --> 00:07:48,039 quicker. 76 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:55,840 Just that's not going to happen that way. No, I'm sorry, but that's a special 77 00:07:53,440 --> 00:08:02,240 meeting. It's a single issue meeting. >> Okay. So, we can't do anything with 78 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:07,759 Okay. So, there's there's some appointments, too, that they have that 79 00:08:04,639 --> 00:08:10,639 day. Okay. So, that's January meeting. It is. 80 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:15,680 » Okay. I'm glad you clarified that. That's the January. 81 00:08:12,879 --> 00:08:20,319 » Okay. I appreciate it. Sure. >> I didn't know for sure that it's the 82 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:25,479 nature of calling a special meeting. Okay, that's special meeting. 83 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,479 You can do both 84 00:08:34,399 --> 00:08:41,839 special order in today. Of course, I got to get 85 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:46,160 all my information on this 86 00:08:44,159 --> 00:08:52,399 delivery till the beginning of January and then we have to do more training. So 87 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:56,880 we have be in service first. Uh we'll put them on our three business units 88 00:08:54,800 --> 00:09:02,720 Sbury and then we'll work on the grants to 89 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:08,480 replace Jason and our backup units. Uh do that and and if you get receive them 90 00:09:05,839 --> 00:09:12,800 in the end of January uh you won't get the invoice until the end of January 91 00:09:10,959 --> 00:09:18,040 » and you have 30 days to pay. >> Yes sir. So it should work out 92 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:24,480 invoice facilitate everything through but I'll 93 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:31,200 do whatever contract I just like to get a heads up for a couple of us in the 94 00:09:27,279 --> 00:09:39,040 councils so we know what's coming the lipan those units they uh usually 95 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:43,519 about 5 years 5 to 6 years um if you purchase one of those what you purchase 96 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:50,000 now is corrosion they're constantly coming out for changes and upgrades. So 97 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:58,000 ours are different versions. We have some version one, some version three, 98 00:09:52,480 --> 00:10:03,600 some version two, so forth. And um so as they as older they get, they can't be 99 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:09,680 upgraded anymore. They're unable to be. So you just got stuff where you're at. 100 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:14,800 So um we will train in three units for the economies. that reduce the cost for 101 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:22,680 uh but they will all come with transmission devices. So uh right now we 102 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:22,680 are having trouble transfer 103 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:34,480 show me if it's a their problem the hospital's problem receive my service 104 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:38,920 problem and so forth and uh they're going to be contact 105 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:45,279 information. So you stay with live packs. Are you changing? 106 00:10:43,519 --> 00:10:50,640 » No, we're staying with live packs. Yeah, we do live pack 35s. 107 00:10:47,839 --> 00:10:55,120 Um, and they are upgrading units. They they'll have the uh the printers, the 108 00:10:53,360 --> 00:11:01,360 transmission devices already built into them, whereas now they're separate 109 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:09,040 carbon monoxide has to be titled everything with that. So 110 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:15,040 our main focus is when we do have these cardiac patients that are patients, we 111 00:11:13,680 --> 00:11:20,920 are able to function to our full capabilities. You know whether we 112 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:20,920 transmit you know 113 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:30,200 this huge 114 00:11:30,560 --> 00:11:33,560 save. 115 00:11:33,680 --> 00:11:44,480 How many do you have now? Um we got eight right now. Uh, just replace three 116 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:49,680 of them. And you need three more just to replace the ones on the ambulance. 117 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:54,800 And then there's one. Everything's good. 118 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:58,640 So, we're just getting started. We're just 119 00:11:56,240 --> 00:12:03,519 getting started. If we do it in phases, maybe we won't hit this all at once. We 120 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:07,279 have continually kind of step forward there. 121 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:14,000 uh he and I have talked and uh talked to some other uh resources uh about 122 00:12:10,399 --> 00:12:20,959 possible funding alternatives to assist in this endeavor. So it'll be working 123 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:24,120 progress but this this is a huge step for us. 124 00:12:30,079 --> 00:12:36,880 Okay. Any other updates? Uh, right now we're working on fixing 125 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:41,519 the station. Uh, I was talking 126 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:46,880 and I talked about it. Uh, the building's not heating. Some rooms are 127 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:51,519 heated, some are not. Um, did some changed out some faucets. We 128 00:12:49,279 --> 00:12:55,120 had one faucet actually. Uh, it was continually 129 00:12:53,279 --> 00:12:59,839 running. It's one of those you put your hand on. You kick off for maybe 3 130 00:12:57,519 --> 00:13:05,440 seconds and then shut off. Well, this one was continuing to flow. Uh, so we 131 00:13:02,639 --> 00:13:12,079 have process fixed. Some rooms are not heated. Um, we did find a problem. We do 132 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:16,320 have water softener and um, we going through a lot of salt and all that. So, 133 00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:23,200 they're coming back to fix that because we shouldn't so much. So, we got that 134 00:13:20,560 --> 00:13:28,240 system in the short cycle. So, that's why some rooms are possibly eating and 135 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:32,959 some aren't. Um, and then bring that guy back and put uh in the attic to the 136 00:13:31,279 --> 00:13:36,800 dampers and see if they can't adjust and fix 137 00:13:34,959 --> 00:13:42,279 it out a little bit. Uh, we have a separate shower and there is absolutely 138 00:13:39,279 --> 00:13:42,279 no 139 00:13:42,560 --> 00:13:46,680 one clean 140 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:54,079 that just the bedrooms are on a separate 141 00:13:51,040 --> 00:14:03,320 system. Each one separate. So that's all we uh kind of fine tune on. So um 142 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:03,320 station 143 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:07,000 work 144 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:14,600 at the same time 145 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:22,120 res 146 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:25,839 issues. 147 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:34,160 dampers like they should and 148 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:40,399 we've seen that something else that 149 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:43,120 we might need to look at and we talked earlier. I don't know if it's 150 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:48,720 appropriate time to say it, but when the jail opened, we had a little time there 151 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:53,360 to determine what the cost was going to be to run the jail with the utilities 152 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:56,800 and the expenses and all that. We have to adjust later. 153 00:14:55,600 --> 00:15:02,639 We're going to have to do this with the ambulance building, too. 154 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:07,839 » We've had soon will be a year. So, we'll soon have a year worth of records to 155 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:13,120 look at. And all we did we need to look at to make sure we're budgeting enough 156 00:15:10,399 --> 00:15:21,760 for the building. We we get that number within $100. And we simply off took the 157 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:28,240 square footage and the monthly bills and did an average and it was it was so 158 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:34,399 close it was scary. And then he stories about 159 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:37,920 voodoo science, but it seemed to work. The fact that you got that many months 160 00:15:36,079 --> 00:15:44,320 in there, you you'll be able to be fairly I know this year around just to 161 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:50,959 cover utilities that station. Um 162 00:15:47,839 --> 00:15:55,360 something so prepared for that. Um I need to do next year's budget, but it 163 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:59,360 has been increased slightly. So, I'm doing the houses now to see if we need 164 00:15:57,120 --> 00:16:02,959 more. Another thing is we've had such a good year collections. Like I said, 165 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:06,399 we're have to uh what we pay the billing company 166 00:16:04,639 --> 00:16:12,880 uh monthly. They send us a bill based on what they amount they collect and it 167 00:16:09,759 --> 00:16:19,519 right now just this month's bill, which is a good thing. Talking to Mr. Gra this 168 00:16:15,839 --> 00:16:24,240 morning said that's a good thing. This is good. 169 00:16:21,519 --> 00:16:31,440 We don't have that budget there to pay that. So that's 170 00:16:28,639 --> 00:16:36,079 increasing that building or increased payout. We just got to make some 171 00:16:33,519 --> 00:16:41,040 adjustments. There's so many things you try to plan for a year and you can't 172 00:16:38,959 --> 00:16:45,440 even begin to project everything that's going to happen. all these unseen 173 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:49,680 things. It's a moving target. You do the best you can, but hopefully you at least 174 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:56,240 have money to move from somewhere to reallocate. 175 00:16:52,240 --> 00:17:02,759 But that's it's tough. You just make constantly. It's constantly 176 00:16:59,759 --> 00:17:02,759 reporting. 177 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:14,079 Yeah. Yeah. uh she come off Sunday for 2 hours 178 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:19,760 and she's very knowledable a lot of great people 179 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:22,760 to help you. You just got to ask. So 180 00:17:23,679 --> 00:17:33,039 other than that, I mean this is all maintenance. Uh no oil changes due this 181 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:39,559 week and uh no major breakdown. No major breakdowns. Good. Looks good. 182 00:17:36,559 --> 00:17:39,559 about 183 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:44,840 well 184 00:17:49,120 --> 00:17:58,400 yes hours I can't 185 00:17:55,679 --> 00:18:05,520 everybody's kind of messed up today I apologize 186 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:11,720 the other thing is to We offer this to you. The the agreement they sign 187 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:11,720 yet. 188 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:24,400 I have not received the final grant that I can 189 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:30,320 recall. She said that she would uh that they had 190 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:38,559 accepted my language and that they would get she said they'd be sending a uh a 191 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:44,400 docu sign document but I haven't seen anything of course 192 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:48,880 they need to sign that. So, so as soon as that comes in, I know commissioners 193 00:18:46,799 --> 00:18:56,400 already sign all the licenses necessary to keep 194 00:18:52,320 --> 00:19:01,760 up on our maintenance inventory. So, I will uh have those reports as soon as I 195 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:06,240 get in there 196 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:13,600 this morning. We could do like 14 video cords. I think our IT guys figured out a 197 00:19:09,679 --> 00:19:17,280 way to make it work magic. But yeah, we had 14 people probably end up bringing 198 00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:21,960 over here. >> Yeah, I saw some in there when I come 199 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:26,520 everybody's all spread out. 200 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:31,720 all people off the road. 201 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:41,679 Okay, we got the monitors discussion out of the way. 202 00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:49,760 Uh, any other business may come forward? 203 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:53,200 Not not this time, I'm sure. Next month. So, I guess one thing I needed to bring 204 00:19:51,360 --> 00:19:59,679 up was the hospital's decision to close the OB department. I think due January 205 00:19:56,559 --> 00:20:07,120 31st I believe. Uh so that's going to require a lot more education for the EMS 206 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:10,480 crews. Uh also um you know trying to designate 207 00:20:08,799 --> 00:20:16,880 or work with the other surrounding facilities where they should be taking 208 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:23,200 the uh those OB patients. So be more to come on that but 209 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:26,080 county said they would still have the department. They're going to be our 210 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:35,880 closest facility. >> Just out of curiosity about how many are 211 00:20:29,919 --> 00:20:35,880 uh 60 to 70 average 72 212 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:44,880 72 this year maybe some more in there. Um we do have 213 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:50,480 women's health. They're going to be coming up and doing a lot of education 214 00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:54,799 with the ER staff um as well as EMS. Uh, so they're going to kind of be our 215 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:58,640 primary provider for that education, but there's also several other courses that 216 00:20:56,799 --> 00:21:05,200 we're looking into. Dr. Gamble's looking into different courses for paramedics 217 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:10,000 and physicians and ER staff in general. So are ambulances called a lot for those 218 00:21:07,919 --> 00:21:15,039 runs or in today's world, you know, like 219 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:22,679 they're usually called when there's some problems. Yeah, is is probably a image 220 00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:22,679 would be a big one 221 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:34,640 right now using midwife, you know, a lot of calls on those a lot 222 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:39,120 and uh the midwives if they have any difficulties 223 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:44,400 that experience you know this is kind of new to them train 224 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:50,280 you know as far as I do it's really different uh We get a lot of calls for 225 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:50,280 that. 226 00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:57,039 You know, they do everything from delivery to the full process. If there's 227 00:21:55,679 --> 00:22:00,720 any complications, we get a lot of calls. And a lot of it's going to depend 228 00:21:59,360 --> 00:22:04,440 on where that call's coming from. You know, whether they take on 229 00:22:07,120 --> 00:22:10,120 much 230 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:30,640 utility there, doctor, I don't know. All be your complications go to Union North. 231 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:33,919 All trauma they want they want Union North. They're not going to have a 232 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:40,320 trauma center. Um neuro they want Union North. So 233 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:45,600 really it's it's going to be a bypass facility just in case of emergency 234 00:22:43,120 --> 00:22:52,159 services all the services basically be transferred up there. 235 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:55,760 So um that's going to affect us too. So basically our options in this area will 236 00:22:53,760 --> 00:23:02,559 be IU uh soul good sand depending on sins and 237 00:23:00,159 --> 00:23:08,000 union there. So regional is not trauma anymore 238 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:11,760 at all regional does not want to accept trauma 239 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:16,240 or the regional facility of union does not want to accept trauma. All trauma is 240 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:20,960 recommended to go to union north. I call union right 241 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:24,080 you're calling union over 242 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:29,200 » okay cuz he's a regional started a trauma there used to be trauma 243 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:32,200 center news 244 00:23:32,559 --> 00:23:43,280 all the road to north which is another 7.3 miles for 245 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:46,240 us but that's a long time you got it seems to take forever 246 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:50,159 you know, all the way through town. >> Yeah. There's no good way of getting in 247 00:23:47,679 --> 00:23:57,440 there. Yeah. So, uh, our landscape is changing 248 00:23:54,320 --> 00:24:01,840 quite dramatically. Yeah. But I I will say this in life situations. Uh, and 249 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:08,400 I've had two or three of those. It seems like as I've been the last month or two, 250 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:16,480 I enjoy the test the staff general has done an amazing job. I had a accident 251 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:22,440 and uh I got a question where be I saw where he was supposed to 252 00:24:23,120 --> 00:24:33,919 I got may not be the place to say it but I have on that incident. I don't know 253 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:41,320 how many times that man should have been dead and 254 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:41,320 everything just worked perfectly. 255 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:49,520 So lucky you didn't shut down the ambulance because you had somebody 256 00:24:47,360 --> 00:24:53,679 called call in. You went ahead and worked the ship. You were the closest 257 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:59,279 ambulance. You got there fast. You made the decision to transport immediately. 258 00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:04,880 Uh they had the blood waiting at the 259 00:25:00,799 --> 00:25:12,320 hospital and emergency staff everything just it was that was that was to me 260 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:17,360 that's amazing that something to strive for 261 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:26,240 as we are we give that kind of care that's amazing 262 00:25:22,159 --> 00:25:30,400 something about agreement I agree we 263 00:25:28,159 --> 00:25:37,840 everything fell together on that and I can just go on on another calls very 264 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:43,520 similar to that but uh I think two um were enhancing our relationship with the 265 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:47,200 ER staff and the doctors and you know I personally I remember I told the doctor 266 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:52,320 that I said hey here's what I've got to come to you here's what I need and he 267 00:25:49,360 --> 00:25:57,520 met me outside he met me outside he was on it and uh 268 00:25:55,600 --> 00:26:02,720 the whole staff I think we all remember back when I 269 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:07,919 started the sheriff departments. That was it. 270 00:26:05,919 --> 00:26:14,559 That was uh that was certainly better than nothing.
