C. Discussion Items

MAS Objectives and Agenda

Meier shares the feeling that MAS holds value in getting the doctors from different

hospitals together for conversation. Would like to see meetings still held, but recognizes

a need for adjusting membership and readdressing subcommittee goals and mission.

Carbon asks about feasibility of having committee shifted to a meeting that is organized

by EMS Association or the Dane County EMS office rather than being a county

subcommittee under EMS Commission. Will bring this proposal back to corp counsel

and EMS Commission.

MAS Membership

Membership is large and subcommittee experiences difficulties meeting quorum every

meeting. Would like to slim down number of voting members, but want to know what

agencies should remain represented as members. Suggestion to move away from having

just member names listed and move to "representatives" of an agency to be more

flexible in meeting quorum. Meier confirms ordinance for subcommittee allows

representatives in place of a member. Decision was made to wait on making final

choices on membership until EMS Commission and Corp Council weigh in on how

meeting is structured.

Dane County EMS Update

Still waiting on lift for new R30. Meier collaborated to bring Active Shooter Incident

Management (ASIM) training to the county. Train the trainer session is available for 10

providers able to commit to training every year. Received over 20 interested requests, so

a survey went out to vet providers with training experience and time to train others.

DCEMS office is hosting two HPCPR sessions on November 2nd and are still taking

registrations for providers interested in participating. Protocol updates continue with a

goal of having final draft submitted to state for approval by November.
