              the Medical Response service – this

           2017 accomplishments
           Company Officer Development Program

           Implementation of accredited Fire Officer II for District Chiefs and Platoon Chiefs
           commenced this year. All fire officer training will progress to accredited
           programs exclusively in future years. This ensures program uniformity and is an
           industry best practice

           Auxiliary power units in fire apparatus

           APUs were installed in the new Water Rescue and Ladder vehicles
           to help reduce fuel consumption by powering essential systems when
           the vehicles are on scene
Slide 12

           2017 accomplishments
           Water rescue replacement

           Replacement of two 1986 Water Rescues apparatus
           with improved ability to deploy quickly for water
           and ice rescue operations

           Automated CPR device trial

           Throughout 2017, the trial of automated chest compression devices evaluated
           multiple models for operational effectiveness. The selection of the preferred
           model will be made by the end of the year. These devices will significantly
           improve responder safety when performing CPR in a moving ambulance, and
           are expected to improve the quality of CPR provided while moving cardiac
           arrest patients
Slide 13

           2017 accomplishments
           Update of fire squad vehicles
           Replacement of two Urban Squad vehicles to improve
           responder and patient safety by providing an enclosed
           treatment space within the vehicle while at the same time
           reducing vehicle cost by 2/3rds

           Specialty fire training scheduling
           All new fire recruits receive accredited specialty rescue training in HazMat or
           Technical Rescue while undertaking their regular program. This aims to reduce
           overtime cost by reducing the incidence of backfill for staff attending these
           training programs after entering operational duty

           2017 accomplishments
           Spark Innovation Grant
           The Community Paramedicine program received a grant to conduct research
           utilizing specific assessment modules used by WRHA Home Care Services. The
           goal was to improve overall care by allowing multiple providers to collect data
           on common terms, using common language and therefore able to provide
           continuous care during patient transitions. This helps improve patient referrals
           to community support networks thereby avoiding over-reliance on emergency
           resources

           Replacement of water tanker
           The 1986 Water Tanker ceased operation in 2016 and was
           replaced in 2017, thereby restoring fire suppression
           capability outside of the water district

           2018 preliminary operating budget
           – Medical Response revenue detail
           Major changes:
           •   Provincial ambulance fee reduction funding introduced
               •   Baselined at 2017 rates

           •   Cessation of Transfer of Care delay charging
           •   The end of the funding formula for emergency ambulances
           Major issues:
           •   Confirmed funding commitment from WRHA set at a 2016 baseline
               •   Creates a funding shortfall due to cost increases between 2016 and 2018
               •   Will need WRHA to increase funding or direct where service reductions are to be made

           Facilities optimization – overview
           This program seeks to maximize the long term efficiency of the station
           network
           Ensures station coverage across the city so that all citizens benefit from a
           common level of service

           $20.7m program cost over 6 years provides:
           • design and evaluation for three station optimizations
           • land acquisition and construction for two station optimization

           $0.6m in 2018 provides:
           • evaluation and design for Station 9 (Marion) and 15 (Autumnwood) – includes
             community engagement
Slide 45

           Equipment obsolescence – overview
           This program seeks to replace the critical equipment used by fire fighters
           and paramedics in a systematic and ongoing basis to ensure service
           delivery can be maintained

           $15.7m program cost over 6 years provides:
           • cyclical replacement of specialized emergency equipment: cardiac
             monitor/defibrillators; Toughbook portable computers; stair chairs; self
             contained breathing apparatus; SimMan mannequins; rescue equipment;
             power stretchers; decontamination units; radio equipment
           $0.9m in 2018 provides:
           • Annual program to replace cardiac monitor defibrillators
           • 3 yearly replacement of stair chairs
Slide 46

           Computer aided dispatch – overview
           These capital funds seek to replace the current CAD system that manages
           emergency call taking and fire/ambulance dispatch functions

           Removed from the capital program for 2018 – planned to resubmit into
           2019 as part of the 2019 budget process once best option is fully scoped
           There are no funds allocated in 2018 as we are still working through the options and
           procurement/proposal phases of the project. This complex project is not yet at a stage
           to determine a class 3 or better cost estimate and so has been deferred to meet policy
           requirements.

           What has become clear through this process is a significant interdependency between
           the core CAD system and seven associated systems. This has changed the scope of the
           project and will likely result in a broader program to ensure the systematic
           replacement over a number of years of these associated systems. A number of options
           are being explored to minimize the cost of replacing this essential and complex
           system.

           Station capital maintenance – overview
           These capital funds support the ongoing repair and structural maintenance of the
           station network to ensure the asset lives are maximized

           $16.0m program cost over 6 years provides:
           • critical works identified to move station assets closer to a Facility Condition Index
             classification of “managed care” – this is a below average target when compared
             with other City Council assets
           $2.6m in 2018 is planned to fund the following work (tender outcome dependent):
           • Asbestos abatement and renovations $1.5m
           • Roof repairs $0.4m
           • Heating systems $0.5m
           • Security system installation $0.2m
