This page is out of date!

The following news item is out dated and has been superceded by EMS Vehicle Equipment and Supply Requirements for equipment lists only. Inspection procedures are still current in this document.

The following policy addresses EMS Vehicle Requirements, Fees and the Permit Process for each vehicle class. In addition, it also covers vehicle equipment and supply lists for Class B, C and Non-Transporting (A) EMS vehicles. These lists will ensure that the amount of equipment and supplies on EMS vehicles are consistent and, most importantly, meets the needs of your patients during response and transportation.

EMS vehicles will be subject to an initial inspection as well as spot inspections to ensure compliance with the guidelines put forth in this policy. The process for these spot inspections is provided in the policy. The effective date is December 1, 2009.

Contact March Tucker, Jr., Regulatory Section Chief, for more information in regards to these policies.

See attached for the policy documents.
