Form HS 3-71 Rev. l0/O1 SCHEDULE A JAWS OF L1FE EQUIPMENT PURCHASE Project Number Em04-04(01-H-Ol) MISSION/GOAL The goal of this project is to reduce the number of deaths and complications from serious injuries, resulting from motor vehicle accidents within the Kaumana and Kawailani Fire/Emergency Medical Services districts. These two districts currently have no power extrication devices and require waiting for a Light Rescue Truck to respond from the Waiakea Fire district. By equipping the fire apparatus from Kaumana and Kawailani with power extrication tools, it will allow these fire crews to extricate pinned vehicle occupants faster than is currently being done. A traffic accident victims best chance of survival is to get to definitive surgical care in a timely manner. Each minute wasted works against the victim. STRATEGIES The project will equip both Engine-4 of Kaumana and Engine-3 of Kawailani with a complete power extrication tool set, commonly called "the Jaws of Life" extrication devices. All current Personnel are trained in the techniques used with power extrication devices. All new Fire Recruits undergo training with these devices as part of their initial Firefighting training. Upon delivery of the extrication devices, training will be done utilizing in-house instructors to familiarize personnel with the specific brand of device purchased. There will be six (6) sepazate training periods. This will allow each of the 3 shifts from the 2 stations to attend the training. The project will allow all personnel to become efficient in the use of power extrication tools and to extricate pinned victims in a timely manner. SOLUTION/IMPLEMENTATION The project calls for the purchase of two identical sets of power extrication devices. The purchase will include 1 each of A) Power Unit, B) Extension Ram, C) Cutter Unit, D) Spreader Unit, E) Hoselines, and F) Service Contract. There will be no added cost for training or personnel as this will be done with existing trained Hawaii County Fire Department personnel. EVALUATION The effectiveness of this project will be monitored documentation of the total time it takes a vehicle accident victim to begin transport to an emergency room, from the time of arrival of the Engine Company. National Emergency Medical Services standazds set a maximum 10-minute scene time for critical trauma victims. This project hopes to bring Engine-4, Kaumana, and Engine-3, Kawailani, to within acceptable National standards. Task to be accomplished a. Purchase of Power extrication devices b. Training on purchased devices c. Devices being put into service on respected Fire Apparatus d.
