The Fire Department operates under ALCO- <br /> EMS Emergency Medical Plan protocols. <br /> The ALCO-EMS plan will be activated if medical service needs, resulting from an <br /> incident, will overwhelm the resources of a single ALCO-EMS zone. Each base hospital <br /> will coordinate emergency response within its zone and between other zones. An <br /> emergency dispatch system (Alameda County Central Medical Emergency Dispatch <br /> [ALCO-CMED]) is in place to alert all hospitals in the plan. The Fire Department and <br /> Health Services Department have radio links with ALCO-CMED. ALCO-CMED is <br /> located in the Alameda County Regional Emergency Communications Center and <br /> operated under the Alameda County Emergency Dispatch Consortium Mutual Aid <br /> Agreement. ALCO-CMED will send ambulances to the disaster site and maintain <br /> receiving hospital bed count status. Air transportation via helicopter may be used if the <br /> overall time for transport to a hospital is at least 20 minutes less than ground <br /> transportation. Other hospitals will cancel routine services to prepare to receive <br /> patients. <br /> In the event of an emergency, requests for outside assistance will be channeled through <br /> S300 WAA Contingency Plan 12 September2018 <br />
