Agenda 02/14/2012 Item #16F32/14/2012 Item 16. F.3.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to renew the North Naples Fire Control and Rescue District's Certificate
of Public Convenience and Necessity for non - transport Advanced Life Support services
within the North Naples Fire Control response boundary and pursuant to mutual -aid
agreement for one year and authorize the Chairman to execute the Permit and Certificate.
OBJECTIVE: To receive approval from the Board of County Commissioners (Board) for the
renewal of the North Naples Fire Control District's Certificate of Public Convenience and

County Manager or designee. The Director of the Bureau of Emergency Services is the County
Manager's designee.
In addition, Section 10 provides that renewals be based on the same standards as the granting of
the original COPCN along with such other factors as may be relevant. The minimum
requirements for an application to be deemed complete are set forth in the Collier County
Ordinance No. 04 -12, as amended, Section 5. The application is back -up to this item.
In accordance with Section 10 of Ordinance No. 04 -12, as amended, the Director of the Bureau
of Emergency Services recommends approval based on his finding that there is a public necessity
for the North Naples Fire Control & Rescue District to provide the service and that all other
requirements under Ordinance No. 04 -12 have been met.

part of the annual granting of the COPCN for this non - transport ALS program, require the Fire
District to provide and conduct the following efforts effective February 28, 2012.
1. Fully cooperate in a timely manner with the filing of quarterly response -time and statistical
care reports in a form jointly approved by the County Medical Director and the North Naples
Fire Department District Medical Director.
2. Fire District shall ensure that all efforts are faithfully committed to ensure continunity of
patient care by having its paramedics ride -in to the hospital when joint policy, procedure, and
ALS procedures initiated by North Naples Fire Control personnel exist.

aide agrements; or (3) call made pursuant to the terms of the Collier County Fire Chiefs Local
Mutual aide Agreement, dated January 25,2011. These items have been incorporated into the
Permit and Certificate so that such Fire District services may continue. The Board Chairman's
letter is attached as back -up.
The EMS Policy Board has reviewed this application and unaniomously voted to recommend
renewal. Correspondence from the EMS Policy Board Chair in support of the one year renewal
is back -up to this item.
If this item is approved by the Board, the COPCN and Permit will expire on February 28, 2013.
The Fire District has reviewed the Permit and COPCN and finds the proposed terms and
requirements acceptable.
FISCAL IMPACT: The Board shall recognize and appropriate the $250.00 filing fee to the
Board for the Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity renewal.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no Growth Management Impact.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: The Ordinance allows the renewal COPCN to be approved
routinely by the Board without a hearing. If a hearing is held the standards set forth in
Ordinance No. 04 -12, Section 7 apply. Section 7 states:
"The Board of County Commissioners shall not grant a certificate unless it shall
find, after public hearing and based on competent evidence that each of the following
standards has been satisfied:
A. That there is a public necessity for the service. In making such
determination, the Board of County Commissions shall consider, as a minimum,
the following factors:
(1) The extent to which the proposed service is needed to improve the overall
Emergency Medical Services (EMS) capabilities of the County.
(2) The effect of the proposed service on existing services with respect to quality of
service and cost of service.
(3) The effect of the proposed service on the overall cost of EMS service in the
County.
(4) The effect of the proposed service on existing hospitals and other health care
facilities.
(5) The effect of the proposed service on personnel of existing services and the
availability of sufficient qualified personnel in the local area to adequately staff all
existing services.
B. That the _ applicant has sufficient knowledge and experience to properly
operate the proposed service.
C. That, if applicable, there is an adequate revenue base for the proposed
service.
2
Packet Page -1919-
2/14/2012 Item 16. F.3.
D. That the proposed service will have sufficient personnel and equipment to
adequately cover the proposed service area."
Ordinance No. 04 -12, Section 8 provides:
"In making the determinations provided for in Section 7 above, the Board may, in its sole
discretion, appoint a Hearing Officer to hold a public hearing and to make factual findings and
conclusions as a result of the hearing. Should a Hearing Officer be appointed, said Hearing
Officer shall render a written report to the Board within 30 days of the hearing, which report
shall contain the officer's findings and conclusions of fact, and a recommended order. The
findings and conclusions of fact shall be binding upon the Board, but the recommended order
shall be advisory only."
This item is legally sufficient and requires a majority vote for Board action. - JBW
RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of County Commissioners:
1. Accept the Director of the Bureau of Emergency Services' findings;
2. Approve and authorize the Chairman to execute a Permit and renewal COPCN to the
North Naples Fire Control and Rescue District for non - transport ALS services.

Re. Application for Renewal of Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity --
Advanced Life Support Non - Transport Services
Dear Leo,
Enclosed please find the North Naples Fire Control and Rescue District's application for
renewal of the Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity -- Advanced Life
Support Non - Transport ( "COPCN ").
As you are aware, the Board of County Commissioners granted the District the COPCN
on February 8, 2011, and the State of Florida granted the District license to provide
Advanced Life Support Non - Transport services on February 28, 2011. Pursuant to its
terms, the COPCN issued by Collier County is valid for one year from the date the
District receives its license from the State of Florida. Collier County Ordinance 2004 -12
provides that the County Administrator will recommend to the Board whether to grant
the application "within sixty (60) days of the time the Administrator determines the
application is complete." Since our current COPCN will expire February 28, 2012, we
trust that sufficient time exists for review and recommendation to the Board of County
Commissioners prior to the expiration of the current COPCN.
It is our intent to provide all information to enable the application to be deemed
complete as soon as possible. Please contact us immediately if additional information
is required.
Very tru y y urs,

(2) The boundaries of the territory desired to be served. The North Naples Fine Control and
Rescue District ("District or NNFD ") shall provide Advanced Life Support (ALS) non - transport
services within the boundaries of the District, which is operating pursuant to Chapter 99 -450,
Laws of Florida, (Attachment 1). In addition, the District requests that the County accept all of
the District's currently executed mutual and automatic aid agreements within the County
(Attachment 2) as areas in which ALS non - transport services may also be provided by the
District. The District currently responds outside of its boundaries by providing first responding
services to other adjoining fire districts and agencies for medical and fire related emergencies.
This provision of emergency medical services is limited to Basic Life Support as the most recent
COPCN issued to NNFD excluded its ability to provide ALS service outside of its legal
geographic boundaries. It is the District's belief that this inability to provide emergency medical
services to these areas that it serves via mutual and automatic aid agreements is not in the
patient's best interest. Qualified District Paramedics are on scene but are prohibited from
providing ALS care when necessary. Allowing the District to provide ALS first response non -
transport services to these areas will further augment the County's provision of emergency
medical and transport services.

➢ The North Naples Fire Control & Rescue District has beeii involved in providing Fire
Rescue and Emergency Medical Services since 1961. The District has provided
Advanced Life Suppoit (ALS) first response non - transport in conjunction with the Collier
County Emergency Medical Services Department fi-om 1999 to 2008. On- February 8,
2011,. the District received from the Board of County. Commissioners a COPCN to
provide ALS non - transport services, which expires 1 year from the date the District

licensure from the State of Florida Department of Stealth Bureau of Emergency Medical
Services, On April 1, 2011, the District began providing services after a successful site
inspection by the State of Florida Bureau of Emergency Medical'Services that revealed
no discrepancies with State law and regulations.
➢ Since being licensed, the District, through its Medical Director, has developed and
implemented a comprehensive, and challenging paramedic eredentialing process that
requires every District paramedic seeking to provide ALS level patient care to
successfully complete a 40 hours protocol/skills review program. They must successfully
pass a written exam with a minimum passing score of 80 that is based on the Collier
County Common Medical Protocol (transport level), prepared by a third party vendor,
and administered and graded by Hodges University. Lastly, each paramedic must
successfully complete a one -on -one scenario based review with the District's Medical
Director, This internal credentialing process is valid for two years. At the end of the
team, each paramedic wishing to be re- credentialed must meet all prescribed performance
benelunarks, pass a written exam and again successfully complete a one -on -one review
by the District's Medical Director.

Requirement for board approval in granting certificate
The Board of County Commissioners shall not grant a certificate unless it shall find, after
public hearing and based on competent evidence that each of the follow =ing standards has been �
satisfied:
(1) That there is a public necessity for the service, In making such determination, the
Board of County Commissioners shall consider, as a minimum, the following factors:
5
Packet Page -1929-
2/14/2012 Item 16.F.3.
i a. The extent to which the proposed service is needed to improve the overall
emergency medical sex -vices (EMS) capabilities of the county.
Section 2 of Article IV of the District's charter, as can be found in chapter 99-
450, Laws of Florida, allows the District to establish and maintain emergency medical
services and rescue response consistent with section 191.008(1), Florida Statues,
chapter 401, Florida Statues, and any certificate of public convenience and necessity
or its equivalent issued. The North Naples Fire Control & Rescue District has
provided ALS first response non - transport services within its district boundaries for
over 10 (ten) years. Consequently, the District's enabling Act 99 -450, Laws of
Florida Article IV "Powers of the District" Section 2 allows the District to establish
and maintain emergency medical services and rescue response consistent with section
191.008 (1), Florida Statues, and the provision of chapter 401, Florida Statues, and
any certificate of public convenience and necessity or its equivalent issued. Over the
years the District has proven its ability to provide not only a high level of ALS
service, but also the ability to positively augment the Collier County Emergency
Medical Services Department's response time benchmarks to Emergency Medical
Calls within the District. This statement is still valid today, The District response
times have continued to improve resulting in an overall system average response to
medical calls within the District to 5 minutes and 45 seconds,
The ability for NNFD paramedics to rapidly and accurately assess patients to
determine if the patient needs to go to the hospital or conversely to sign a patient out
if they do not need an ambulance transport to the hospital frees up County EMS
transport units so they can be available for other calls for service. This augmentation
to the level of service within the District boundaries has produced immediate
efficiencies for the Collier County EMS Department. Additional improvements in the
area are capable with some minor changes to the Collier County Common Medical
Protocol. These recommendations have already been provided to the County, Medical
Director for his review.
b. The effect of the proposed service on existing services with respect to quality of
service and cost of service.
. The NNFD current enhancement of the Emergency Medical Care system is
evident in several ways, most importantly in the District's commitment to ensure the
continuity of patient care. Advanced Life Support procedures are initiated for patients
who require them by NNFD prior to the arrival of Collier County Emergency Medical
Services, When such procedures are initiated by NNFD personnel or when the
patient condition is critical enough to warrant additional personnel, the District sends
a credential District Paramedic. or Emergency Medical Technician from the scene to
the hospital with the Collier County EMS transport unit. Since the District began
providing ALS as a licensed provider (April 1, 2011), District personnel have
accompanied patients during transport to the hospital in excess of 197 times.
It-is without debate that the ability to provide BLS and ALS care as early as
possible is an immediate improvement to the provision of emergency medical care,
6
Packet Page -1930-
2/14/2012 Item 16.F.3.
J.�
The current staffing of a Collier County EMS ALS transport unit is only two
personnel (one Driver and one Practitioner in the back). The addition of NNFD
personnel adding a second and some times a third person as credentialed practitioners
in the back of the ambulance during transport on critical calls immediately improves
the provision of patient care and further expands 'the over all medical/clinical.
expertise of all paramedics and EMTs.
NNFD has also enhanced the Emergency Medical • Care system by developing a
comprehensive continuing medical education program lead -by Dr, Panozzo, the
District. Medical Director, Under his authority, medical in- services are provide to
District EMTs and Paramedics on a monthly basis, rather than every. other month as
currently provided by Collier County EMS. In addition, the District has incorporated
three additional Associate Medical Directors each with an important area of expertise:
Emergency Medicine, Pediatric Critical Care, and Adult Critical Care, Each area of
specialty provides medical school type clinical rotations for the District's EMTs and
Paramedics, fuuther enhancing the learning opportunity, Therefore, this continuing
education program ensures the addition of well educated and competent Basic and
Advanced level medical practitioners to the Emergency Medical Service system.
One additional component of the educational program that deserves separate and
distinct recognition is the partnership between Aithrex, Inc, and the District. Arthrex
has allowed NNFD EMTs and Paramedics a unique education opportunity to perform
certain low frequency but critical procedures in a medical school environment using
human cadavers as the instructional tool.
NNFD is required by Florida Statute to develop and implement a Quality
Assurance/Improvement program completely dedicated to the medical oversight and
overall delivery care by the District's.EMTs and Paramedics. The District uses its
patient care data collection system to review 100 percent of patient care reports and
submits any trends to the NNFD QAIQI committee for further review. If necessary,
recommendations for continuing educational opportunities or medical protocol
revisions are provided by the QAIQI committee, Once again, the District's Quality
Assurance/Improvement program provides constant oversight over the NNFD EMS
program assuring medical protocol compliance on a call per call basis.
The granting of this COPCN will have no impact on the cost of the current Collier
County EMS department. ALS first response non - transport services are already being
provided •to the residents and visitors of the North Naples Fire Control District at no
additional cost. This practice is expected to continue unless a change to the county
fee ordinance provides opportunities for billing for such services. THIS SECTION
DOES NOT MATCH UP WITH PRIOR SECTION.
c. The effect of the proposed service on the overall cost of EMS service iri the
county.
-The 2011 Board of County Commissioners granting of the COPCN for the
provision of Advance Life Support first response non - transport services has resulted in no
' 7
Packet Page -1931-
2/14/2012 Item 16. F.3.
impact on the overall cost of the Collier Count), Emergency Medical Service. Advanced
Life Support first response non - transport services are currently being provided by the
District at no cost to the Collier County Emergency Medical Services Department. The
District continues to be completely funded to provide the same level of Basic and
Advanced Life Support service currently enjoyed by the residents and visitors to the
county. In fact, as identified in the above sections, the District has successfully enhanced
the existing level of BLS and ALS services without affecting the cost of the Collier
County EMS Department or its residents.
In essence, as mention in last year's application, "the county could realize
significant savings by either eliminating existing transport units fi-om areas which are
already well serviced or relocating transport units to other areas in the county which are
currently under serviced" without a reduction in the current level of the service within the
District. The county has realized some of these efficiencies in North Naples by
reallocating first response ALS medcorn vehicles previously assigned to serve the area
within the District to areas of the county that have historically been under serviced and
also by moving one of the two transport units from the Pelican Bay Station 44 into the
City of Naples to increase the level of service in the City.
Clearly, these options would not have been available if the North Naples Fire
District was not issued a. COPCN and granted the, ability to augment the Collier County
EMS Department with ALS first response non - transport services. The District continues
to stand firm that additional efficiencies and cost saving exist. It also continues to
support the development. of public forums that will encourage increased communications
and expanded visions to further improve the delivery of Emergency Medical Care in
Collier County. One example of our continuous conunitment is the District's
involvement in the current Collier County EMS Policy Committee, development of an
EMS Council and the development of a County -Wide Public Safety Authority, all of
which were recommendations of the Blue Ribbon committee.
d, The effect of the proposed service. on existing hospitals and other health care
facilities.
Currently the North Naples Fire Control & Rescue District has two hospitals within its
district boundaries. The District has been providing both Basic & Advanced Life Support
non- transport service for many years with no negative effect in the operations of either
hospital. Consequently, the District's two Assistant Medical Directors represent each of
the two hospitals and also seive, on the NNFD Emergency Medical Services Medical
Council, which closely monitors the provision of care. The District's record of
augmenting and enhancing the level of care continues to be recognized by members of
the council.
e. The effect of the proposed service on personnel of existing seiTices and the
availability of sufficient qualified personnel in the local area to adequately staff
all existing services.

Emergency Medical Services within its boundaries since 1961, and Advanced Life Support first
response non - transport services since 1999. Our management staff has a combination of over
150 years of experience in providing excellence in service to its community.
The District responds to approximately 6500 911 medical calls per year, providing each
Paramedic with ample experience in the provision of both Basic Life Support and Advanced Life
Support. in addition, due to an almost non - existent employee turn -over rate, the District has a
collection of some of the most experienced and tenured Paramedics in'the County. Many of the
District's most experienced paramedics originally came from tine Collier County Emergency
Medical Services Department transport service.
Finally, all District EMTs and Paramedics not only meet all State of Florida Department
of Health certification requirements, but in many instances exceed them. In addition, all District
EMTs and Paramedics must complete a comprehensive credentialing process that combines
required didactical training, performance benchmarks, written exams, and one -on -one with the
District Medical Director before being allowed to perform it an ALS capacity. This process must
be completed every two years in order to retain the privilege to practice at the ALS level.
(3) That, if applicable, there is an adequate revenue base for the proposed service.
The North Naples Fire Control & Rescue District currently provides Advanced Life Support
non - transport services within its District boundaries, The District has consistently funded fire
operations and prevention services, as well as Basic Life Support and Advance Life Support non -
transport services, utilizing its millage cap of 1 Mil. No change to this funding source is either
necessary or expected.
(4) That the proposed service will have sufficient personnel and equipment to adequately
cover the proposed service area,
The North Naples Fine Control and Rescue District currently operates 10 Advanced Life Support
first response non - transport apparatus utilizing 63 paramedics and 65 Emergency Medical
Technicians. The District has enough paramedics and EMTs to provide the level of service
being requested. In addition, the District budget contains funding to purchase all necessary
supplies and equipment to continue to provide services at the ALS non - transport level.

LOCAL MU'T'UAL AID AGREEMENT
THIS INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT made and entered into this Qg-tk day of

Statutes, for the purpose of securing to each the benefits of mutual aid protection of life and
property from fire and other emergencies, and to provide local governmental entities a cost
effective way to control and mitigate local emergencies that exceed their ability to handle
efficiently. This Agreement is not for catastrophic events, nor is it to be used to supplement a
Party's inadequate provision or planning of necessary infrastructure to adequately serve its
residents. In the event of a catastrophic event, the Statewide Mutual Aid Agreement may be
invoked, which would supersede this agreement.
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, each of the Parties maintains equipment and personnel for the suppression
of fires and other emergencies within its own jurisdiction and areas; and
WHEREAS, the Parties represent ten (10) fire suppression entities, or Agencies, in
Collier County, consisting of one county fire department; two dependent fire districts of Collier
County; two municipal fire departments, and five independent special fire control and rescue
districts; and
WHEREAS, no single Agency can command sufficient staffing and resources to handle
all potential emergencies; and

manpower and resources to handle all possible emergencies, and

WHE PEAS, the Parties desire to enhance their capabilities to protect life and property;
and
