Along with personal protection measures that you can do yourself such as washing hands and covering coughs, we will be disinfecting hard surfaces around the station and in the ambulances on a daily basis. Each ambulance and the stations will have spray bottles with a 10% bleach solution for disinfecting the surfaces. Any employee who is feeling sick with fever or flu like symptoms, should not come to work or respond to callbacks. Guidelines for EMS responses for suspected Covid-19 patients and dispatch procedures will be released shortly based on CDC guidelines. In the meantime, if there is any question when responding to a medical emergency that involves flu like symptoms, always air on the side of caution and don the proper PPE. Thanks for your anticipated cooperation.</p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Chief Hall</p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><pre><b><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Californian FB",serif'>Russ Hall<o:p></o:p></span></b></pre><pre><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Californian FB",serif'>Fire Chief/EMD<o:p></o:p></span></pre><pre><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Californian FB",serif'>Holden Fire Dept.<o:p></o:p></span></pre><div><pre><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Californian FB",serif;color:black'>1370 Main Street</span><span style='font-family:"Californian FB",serif;color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></pre><pre style='font-variant-ligatures: normal;font-variant-caps: normal;orphans: 2;text-align:start;widows: 2;-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;text-decoration-style: initial;text-decoration-color: initial;word-spacing:0px'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Californian FB",serif;color:black'>Holden, MA 01520</span><span style='font-family:"Californian FB",serif;color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></pre><pre style='font-variant-ligatures: normal;font-variant-caps: normal;orphans: 2;text-align:start;widows: 2;-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;text-decoration-style: initial;text-decoration-color: initial;word-spacing:0px'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Californian FB",serif;color:black'>508-210-5650</span><span style='font-family:"Californian FB",serif;color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></pre></div><pre><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></pre><pre><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Californian FB",serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></pre><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div></body></html>
