Sacramento auditor issues recommendations to improve city's ambulance response ...Middle East

News by : (CBS sacramento) -

"We kind of looked at the different pieces of response time to see if there were ways that we could shorten that," Sacramento City Auditor Farishta Ahrary said. Ahrary said her office spent more than a year looking at ways to improve ambulance response in Sacramento. 

But that goal is achieved less than 30% of the time during the overnight hours when medics may be sleeping at the fire station. "Sixty seconds could be between life of death for somebody," Ahrary said. Auditors also found more than 40 cases of employees with expired medical credentials.

New paramedics will now work 12-hour shifts, which reduces the need to sleep on the job. New technology is being used to track certifications and alternative responses to non-emergency calls are being considered. "They're not waiting, they are already working on these," Ahrary said.The audit's findings will be presented to Sacramento city leaders next week and the auditor said she will follow up in six months to see what recommendations have and have not been adopted.
