6 GENERAL PLAN IMPLEMENTATION:
Goal 3.0: Protect lives and property of Orange residents and businesses from urban and
wildland fire hazards.
Policy 3.8: Ensure that the Fire Department has sufficient capacity, stations, personnel, and
equipment to meet growth needs in the City for fire protection and related emergency services.
Goal 6.0: Provide public safety services of the highest quality.
Policy 6.3 Provide and use up -to -date technology to improve crime prevention, fire
suppression, and emergency services.
7. DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND:
The Fire Department currently maintains and operates one emergency medical services (EMS)
gurney for each of four front line and four reserve Rescue Ambulances for a total of eight
gurneys. Capital Improvement Program (CIP) funding was approved in FY 2015 -16 for the
purchase of two gurneys. Upon adoption of the FY 2016 -17 budget additional CIP funding will
be available for the purchase of two additional gurneys.
New gurney equipment will need to be compatible with the Power Load cot fastener system
currently in place on new Rescue Ambulances. The combination of this new gurney equipment
with the Power Load system provides for patient loading and unloading with a single button
push. Due to the compatibility requirement and pricing increase for new gurney equipment,
current CIP funding will not support the entire balance necessary for the gurney order. The Fire
Department has identified remaining CIP funding from the April 2015 purchase of Auto Pulse
Cardiac Support Pumps that may be utilized for the balance of the gurney order. Stryker Power
Pro gurneys are used in conjunction with Auto Pulse equipment on all Rescue Ambulances in the
City.
The Fire Department will need to purchase all four gurneys beginning in late June 2016. This
purchase will replace four gurneys which have reached the end of their ten year service life on
reserve Rescue Ambulances. Stryker Medical is the sole source supplier for the Power Pro XT
gurney model that is currently used by the Fire Department. Additionally, warranty service and
repair is handed solely by Stryker Medical.
8. ATTACHMENTS:
1. Sole source letter from Stryker Medical.
2. Current quote from Stryker Medical to include four Power Pro XT gurneys, associated
equipment and warranties.
