MSM EMS Access

By Uncategorized

Greetings Everyone,

A message from Catholic Health:

Tomorrow, December 17, 2021 from noon – 3:00pm the ambulance ramp as well as the EMS entrance at MSM will not be accessible.  EMS crews transporting to MSM during this time should follow the process that was utilized during our ramp repairs last month, park in front of the building and enter through the main ED entrance on the north side of the Emergency department.

Should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me, thank you.

December 2021-03 and December 2021-04 EMS Mobilization Surveys

By Uncategorized

Greetings, from the Bureau:

EMS Agency Leaders,

Please take a few minutes to answer the two survey links below. The surveys are a quick set of questions for the purpose of polling the EMS agencies across NYS to determine which agencies may be interested in entering into a contract for service with the NYS DOH BEMSATS. Even if your agency is not interested in entering into a contract we ask that you please answer both surveys.

We ask that you respond by 7:00 pm on 12/12/2021 as current mission assignments MAY begin as early as 12/15/2021.

December 2021-03 EMS Mobilization Survey (Binghamton Vaccination Site)

December 2021-04 EMS Mobilization Survey (Binghamton Testing Site)

This request is for one location that is a hybrid model where COVID testing and vaccines will be conducted on certain days of the week.
