EMD Save Awards On Monday, March, 23, 2009 EMD dispatcher Julie Porrazzo answered a 9-1-1 transfer call and on the line was a very anxious caller who was reporting that her father was “having a seizure”. Dispatcher Porrazzo initiated EMD protocols and after verifying the address and call-back numbers began EMD caller interrogation. Using the scripted interrogation in the Emergency Medical Dispatch system, she was able to determine that the caller’s father was apparently not breathing and turning blue. Dispatcher Porrazzo initiated a dispatch of fire first responders and paramedics, and then began pre-arrival instructions. She directed the caller to begin CPR. Approximately 5 minutes later, AMR paramedics arrived and took over care. The patient was still in cardiac arrest and successfully defibrillated with a return of his pulse and he began to move, but remained unconscious. He was given medications and emergently transported to Marian Medical Center where he received more advanced care including therapeutic hypothermia. He later had stints placed to reopen his coronary vessels and was discharged, walking, a few days later from the hospital. Julie Porrazzo For her efforts in using her training in Emergency Medical Dispatch to save the life of a human being Ms. Porrazzo was awarded the EMD Save Award by the Santa Barbara County Emergency Medical Services Agency and the Sheriff’s Office. On Saturday June 27, 2009 Dispatch Supervisor Shannon Hoogenbosch answered a 9-1-1 call from a woman reporting that “her husband was “down and clammy.” In the next few crucial minutes, Hoogenbosch used her Emergency Medical Dispatch training to determine that the woman’s 54-year old husband was unconscious and not breathing. Hoogenbosch immediately dispatched Santa Barbara County firefighters and paramedics with American Medical Response (AMR) before she began giving pre-arrival medical instructions to the caller. Hoogenbosch’s ability to take control of the situation and coach the caller through life-saving medical procedures bought valuable time until County Fire and AMR arrived. Once at the home, the first responders determined that the husband was in full cardiac arrest. They used a defibrillator to help restart the victim’s heart. For her efforts in using her Sharon Hoogenbosch training in Emergency Medical Dispatch to save the life of a human being, Ms. Hoogenbosch was awarded the EMD Save Award by the Santa Barbara County Emergency Medical Services Agency and the Sheriff’s Office. On Monday, September 21, 2009 at approximately 11:31 hours a 9-1-1 call from Carpinteria received by the Santa Barbara County Public Safety Dispatch Center. EMD dispatcher Ben Johnson answered the call and on the line was an extremely anxious caller who was reporting that her neighbor was “down and not breathing”. Dispatcher Johnson initiated Emergency Medical Dispatch (EMD) protocols and after verifying the address and call-back numbers began EMD caller interrogation. Using the scripted interrogation in the EMD system, he was able to determine that the caller’s neighbor was a new mom and apparently not breathing and turning blue. Dispatcher Johnson initiated a dispatch of fire first responders and paramedics, and then began pre-arrival instructions. He directed the caller to begin CPR. Approximately 5 minutes later, AMR paramedics and Carpinteria-Summerland firefighters arrived and took over care. The patient was still in respiratory arrest and the paramedics were able to begin ventilating her. The patient Ben Johnson was transported to Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital where she fully recovered and was discharged. For his efforts in using his training in Emergency Medical Dispatch to save the life of a human being Mr. Johnson was awarded the EMD Save Award by the Santa Barbara County Emergency Medical Services Agency and the Sheriff’s Office. 37 INTEGRITY ~ CARING ~ COURAGE ~ FAIRNESS ~ SERVICE
