Light at the end of the tunnel

This week we have continued to interview and hire new employees. As of now:
  • 7 from the in-house Paramedic School have passed their test and are now Paramedics!
  • We have 12 starting Rookie School September 10th
  • 2 PRN Paramedics are coming back full time
  • If reference checks turn out OK, we have hired 1 Paramedic , and 2 EMTs (who are in Paramedic school) from out side
  • We are interviewing today for Vans and dispatch.
  • We are interviewing for more EMTs and Paramedic from out side next week.

In addition to the above, the Board sub-committee have met again and are making great progress on the retention and pay issues. I am still not at liberty to talk about the preliminary thoughts, but I will pass them along as soon as I am able.

It is a light, and I don't think it is a train ;-)
