This book was released on 1997 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Funding for Emergency Medical Services (EMS)/Trauma Systems is being brought to the forefront of debate as states struggle to reduce budgets and federal funding shrinks. All state EMS directors or health departments having responsibility over emergency and trauma program planning, were contacted during a telephone survey in September 1996 and asked seven questions designed to elicit specific funding limits, sources of those funds and current state positions and policies on funding EMS and trauma programs. Cumulatively, the states spent $14.5 million in fiscal year 1996 from federal government sources and $161.6 million in state monies to fund EMS and trauma. The national average for per capita expenditures on EMS and trauma is $0.57. There is no consistency in how states fund EMS and trauma programs. Most states fund both programs from one budget and few actually denote funds specially for trauma programs. The states that receive revenues from fines assessed on traffic violations and fees from motor vehicle registration have the best funding. These states consistently fund EMS/ Trauma systems above the national per capita average and have reduced or no dependence on federal funding. Seven states have very successful programs which are not dependent on federal funding and utilize monies generated by fines assessed on moving traffic violations. Texas should follow the lead of these states since current funding levels fail to provide adequate resources to operate a comprehensive statewide EMS/Trauma system.

Download or read book Texas Disaster Law Guide written by Alfonso Lopez de la Osa Escribano and published by Arte Publico Press. This book was released on 2021-02-28 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2017, Hurricane Harvey knocked power out across a wide swath of Texas, including to the Arkema plant in Crosby. Without electricity, chemicals stored there caught fire and numerous first responders tasked with enforcing the evacuation perimeter were exposed to toxic fumes. A similar situation occurred in 2010, when first responders lacked the specialized equipment and necessary expertise to deal effectively with the British Petroleum oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. This volume provides information about the legal considerations emergency responders and managers face when dealing with disasters, whether man-made or natural. Intended to assist Texas organizations and communities, many of the issues—such as mandatory evacuations and curfews, oil spills and hazardous materials and commandeering private property—will be of interest to agencies around the country. Flowcharts are included that can be reduced to a pocket-sized guide for personnel involved in mitigating the impact of catastrophes. The authors contend that a well-structured legal framework in disaster law increases a city’s resilience and ultimately reduces human suffering and costs. This guide is divided into three parts: Disaster Response Law; Identifying Authority; and Responsibility, Accountability and Liability. It also includes appendices and tables, skillsets and agency duties. It will be indispensable for increasing disaster preparedness in order to protect human life and property.
