     From left to right are: City of Plattsburgh Firefighters / AEMT's Chris Mitchell, Cory Crahan and Doug Walker, all recognized at the recent Clinton County Firefighters Association's Annual Awards Banquet held in Altona N.Y. IAFF Local 2421 Congratulates these Outstanding Members & All the Recipients of the Meritorious Awards. Firefighter Walker and Firefighter Mitchell were recognized for saving the life of Matt Ames 22 of Troy during a structure fire in Feb. 2009. One student died in the blaze after he ran inside trying to save others. Firefighter Crahan "while on vacation with his wife" was recognized for saving a retired NYPD Sergeant after expierencing an apparent heart attack during a cruise last year. Cory's actions that day, also earned him County wide recognition as EMS Provider of the Year. Also recognized at the Banquet was Longtime Cadyville Fire Chief, now AC, for FireFighter of the Year and Gene Carroll from Morrisonville for Fire Police of the Year. Carroll has spent several decades serving county residents, and this wasn't the first time he's been honored by the county. Emergency Preparedness Assistant Director Kelly Donoghue stated the awards are given each year to "celebrate the people who have made a difference in the county in a special way".

Mandated Flu shot info:

ATTN: ALL MEMBERS
 
Due to the confusion and concern among EMS Providers and Agencies regarding the applicability of the recent changes to Part 66 regulations regarding Health Care Personnel Influenza Vaccination Requirements and how they apply to EMS, the DOH has released the following information;
 
Are all EMS personnel mandated to receive flu vaccinations?
 
  • If you are employed by a hospital-owned ambulance service or ALS response service, or your Agency has a contract with a healthcare facility to provide transport, you are mandated to be vaccinated, this will include H1N1 Vaccine when available.
EMS services that respond in the 9-1-1 system and do not have a contractual relationship with a healthcare facility are not required to be vaccinated. (They are strongly encouraged to be vaccinated) regardless.
 
  • Any student who is doing clinical or intern rotations at a healthcare institution, even if they are not employed by an EMS service, must get both the seasonal and H1N1 vaccine when available. (EMS course sponsors are encouraged to revive their clinical agreements as it relates to the requirements of this regulation).
 
The NYS Dept. of Health call line for Novel H1N1 flu questions and concerns is:                      1-800-808-1987.
