Directive: 25-01 – Medic Unit Change-Overs
When a Medic Unit needs to be changed over, this shall first be accomplished by utilizing the spare Medic Units stored at the Shop as long as a compatible unit is available. The procedure of changing over into M13 or M12 is to cease. They are supplied with sufficient equipment to be ready for service relatively quickly dependent upon staffing levels.
Changing over into M12 & M13 has led to radio alias issues and equipment redistribution concerns. This is to halt unless they are the only appropriate rig available that is configured for the station’s Plymovent where the change-over rig is needed.
It is understood that since we currently have older Life Squads with the Plymovent port on the driver’s side and the original TFRD Medic Units with the port on the ‘officer’s side’, there may be a time where this will not be the case and the pre-equipped medic units might be the only option. That is the only time changing over into M12 or M13 is acceptable.
