Paramedics In-House

["BERG,KERRY" <BERGK@siouxvalley.org>]

We are a Part 135 hospital owned and operated flight program.  We have two
B200 King Airs and one Bell 230.  Our flight program is currently in the
process of bringing flight paramedics in-house.  Previously, we contracted
with a local ambulance service for both helicopter and fixed wing paramedic
service.

I'm asking for assistance from the group for information relating to both
job description and salary.  We plan on utilizing the medics (as we are
currently doing) in the ER (when not performing flight related duties) but
would be interested to know if there are other areas of the hospital they
may work.  They'll be primarily working 12 hour shifts with some 24 hour
call time.

In particular, I'm interested if anyone has encountered any JCAHO or medical
control restrictions that may apply to paramedics.
