The information in the downloadable document below pertains to EMS entities that are NOT already reporting electronic PCR data to NYS; especially those who are currently or intending to participate in the CME-Based Recertification Program.

The UBMD EMS Division has been communicating with the Bureau of EMS since this notice was shared with us yesterday.  We understand there may be many questions and we encourage everyone to not panic!  We also encourage agencies to join the EMS Agency Leadership call with the Bureau of EMS, scheduled for this Thursday at 4pm.  We are certain there will be much discussion on the PCR topic.  Once we receive the registration link, we will share on this list.

Over the coming weeks/months, we will work with every impacted entity to implement this necessary change!

Please see communication regarding Brooks-TLC Hospital Surge Diversion Notification.

Brooks-TLC Hospital Surge Diversion Notification 12(Update 01.19.21-1232)

To Erie County’s Stakeholder Community:

Hello! As you know, Erie County is updating its Hazard Mitigation Plan (HMP). The HMP will analyze the hazards faced by the county and its municipalities, residents, and businesses, and will identify a strategy for minimizing the vulnerability to these hazards. You may remember being invited to the Planning Partnership Kickoff webinars that were held on November 18 and 19, 2020. You can find out more about the HMP and the planning process here: https://www.eriecountynyhmp.com/.

I would like to invite you to provide more input into the planning process. We have developed a short survey about the county and the risks it faces. We would greatly appreciate it if you would complete the survey and otherwise participate in this important endeavor. The survey can be found here:
https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/ErieCountyStakeholder

We would appreciate it if you would complete the survey by January 29, 2021.

Please reach out if you have any questions. Thank you very much!

Have a great day!

Melissa Calhoun

Erie County Special Assistant to Emergency Services
