Paramedic Program. On September 2, 2004 the Xxxx Valley Paramedic Authority (RVPA) approved a funding request by the Larkspur Fire Department to implement an Engine Company Paramedic Program. The funding does not increase daily staffing. It provides for differential pay, equipment and training coverage. Currently, the RVPA has authorized a total of up to seven Paramedics for the Larkspur Fire Department. If at any time the RVPA funding for this program is eliminated or reduced, the program may be modified or terminated by the Department. State licensed, Marin County accredited paramedics who are designated and serving as a paramedic on an engine company shall receive a paramedic professional incentive pay differential equal to 11% of base pay. This incentive pay shall be based on hours worked as a paramedic and added to the current step of the employees’ regular rate of pay. Personnel serving as paramedics shall be expected to continuously maintain their Marin County paramedic accreditation. A paramedic may choose to no longer maintain accreditation and will therefore no longer receive a paramedic incentive pay. However, before discontinuing accreditation or if an employee wishes to no longer serve as a paramedic in the Department, they must provide the Department with advance notice. The Department will then remove the employee from paramedic duty after a replacement has been secured. The Department will set as a minimum standard for paramedics the possession of current certificates for PALS or equivalent, PHTLS or equivalent and ACLS. It will be the individual responsibility of each paramedic to maintain these certifications and any others mandated by the State of California and/or the County of Marin. All such recertification’s will be completed by each paramedic in a timely manner so that no portion of a certification or minimum standard lapses during the course of employment as a paramedic by the Larkspur Fire Department. It is recognized that the maintenance of professional competency is the responsibility of each paramedic. The Department will allow each paramedic up to twelve hours each quarter to maintain these skills. If the paramedic chooses to attend such skills maintenance on duty, then a replacement employee will be hired, if needed. If the paramedic wishes to attend off duty, that person will be compensated by the Department at no more than twelve hours of time at the applicable rate of pay per quarter.
Paramedic Program. 29.01 Bargaining unit members regularly scheduled to work as Paramedics in the EMS Program and those individuals required to maintain their certification as Paramedics shall be granted a maximum of one hundred and sixty-four (164) hours annually, outside their normal work schedule to maintain the highest level of skill necessary to perform paramedic work.

Paramedic Program. Effective September 2015, the Newport Beach Fire Department, along with Huntington Beach and Fountain Valley Fire Departments, are participating in a State Community Paramedicine Pilot Study. This portion of the study utilizes specially trained community paramedics to triage and transport patients to alternate destinations. A patient of low acuity status that meets the pre- determined criteria would be transported to an alternative destination such as an urgent care clinic. The goals and objectives of this pilot study test the feasibility to relieve overcrowding of emergency departments and improving patient care and efficiency by transporting patients to appropriate destinations. At the conclusion of the study, should the results indicate a change in staffing, both parties agree to meet and confer in good faith on any changes that may affect unit members, provided that no such changes prior to the expiration of the MOU can occur without mutual agreement. In addition, effective January 1, 2018, the parties agree to reopen the MOU to meet and confer on City proposals regarding alternative staffing models for Paramedics and related matters, provided that no such changes prior to the expiration of the MOU can occur without mutual agreement.
