Driving Change, Enhancing Safety: Key Initiatives to Support Fire Services

Fire Service-Based EMS Tool Kit

The Third Edition of the Fire Service-Based EMS Electronic Tool Kit has been completed and is now ready for release. This toolkit represents a successful joint effort by a small group of representatives from the Metro Chiefs, the IAFF, IAFC, CFSI, and IFSTA. It includes three separate sections: Section One provides information and tools related to fire service-based EMS in general; Section Two offers specific information and tools directly related to the impact of the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) and Integrated Community Health Care Programs (ICHCP) on fire service-based EMS; and Section Three delivers critical information related to policies and practices for responding to incidents involving violence. This resource is provided as a cooperative effort between the International Association of Fire Chiefs (IAFC), the International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF), the Metropolitan Fire Chiefs Association, the Congressional Fire Service Institute (CFSI), and the International Fire Service Training Association (IFSTA).
