Billy Day


Many have heard by now that Billy Day a former Paramedic with MEMS passed away this week. I wanted to pass along the funeral information:

Billy's Services: visitation is wed at 5:00 for family and 6:00 for friends; service is at 2:00 thurs; Vine st. Baptist church, 418 N. Vine Ave. Mt. View AR 72560; casual attire or work uniform/scrubs etc. Instead of flowers a healthcare scholarship fund has been started at Citizen's Bank in Batesville/Mt. View in Billy's memory.

Billy's life was too short, he will be missed.

I just wanted to stop and say, it has been busy, very busy lately. Many of you are working your shift and picking up extra shifts. Help is coming in the form of: a paramedic class that is about ready to test, a rookie class that just began, and 13 certified EMTs and Paramedics that will start orientation soon.

In the mean time know that your work is noticed, I cant describe the weight that comes with this job. I carry the thought of your welfare with me all the time.

Know I appreciate you very much.

I just had to tell you.

Greg

Mandatory Training


A reminder that October 15th is the last day to do your on line mandatory classes. If you miss the date you will have to attend an actual class. If you are a paramedic and miss the deadline for the new drug, you ant work.

Let training know if you have any issues

We are remodeling again



Just when you think we can’t make any more room, we find a way. You may have read in the monitor that Lee has been promoted to controller. This means that we need another office for his replacement. After looking around the property we decided on the following plan.
The supervisor will be in the 12X24 Morgan building on the west side of the building.
Tammy and Keith will move to the supervisor’s old office,
David Turner will move to Tammy’s old office,
We will wall up the West wall of Keith’s office, and make a new door on the east wall. This will be a new office for QA.
The new accountant will move into David’s old office.

The work started Friday with the moving of the smoking area awning. The new smoke area will be by the antenna on the west side of the building.
The ice machine shed will be torn down, and a new awning will be put up from the back door to the front door of the supervisor’s new office.
We trust this will give us the needed space until we can build a new building.
