Guest guest Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 The City of Spearman and Hansford County Hospital District are joining forces to create an incentive stipend program for qualified individuals to take transfers from Hansford County Hospital to higher level of care facilities. If you are an EMT-B, EMT-I, EMT-P or LP, living within a one hour response time to Spearman and would like to earn extra income utilizing your EMT skills, you are invited to join Spearman's H & S EMS organization as a member of the Transfer Team. We know that time away from your family is valuable. That's why we are offering stipend payments for any transfers performed for H & S EMS by Transfer Team personnel. Please see the schedule below for incentive stipend amounts. Transfers less than 50 miles from HCHD (i.e. Borger, ton) EMT-B $75 EMT-I $100 EMT-P/LP $120 Transfers greater than 50 miles (Amarillo, Lubbock) EMT-B $200 EMT-I $225 EMT-P/LP $250 If you are interested in becoming a member of the HCHD/H & S EMS Transfer Team, or would like more information, please contact Kim King, RN EMT-B at Hansford County Hospital District (806)659-5875. kking@... **If you are licensed in another state and are interested in pursuing reciprocity for this program, the costs for this may be covered for you. FAQ about the Transfer Team Program: 1. How will I know if I'm needed to take a transfer? The Transfer Team Members will call the Transfer Team Coordinator or the shift charge nurse and place themselves on call for as little as a few hours or up to 5 concurrent days. At the end of the 5th day on call you can call and renew your call time. 2. Do I have to stay in Spearman when I'm on call? We ask that you maintain a one hour response time to Spearman if you are on-call. 3. If I am on call, will I have to make transfers for other hospitals? All transfers made by Transfer Team members will be patients from HCHD going to higher level of care facilities or patients that are being transferred to HCHD for rehabilitaion or long term care programs. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to call. Thank you, Kim King RN, EMT-B Transfer Team Coordinator Hansford County Hospital District/H & S EMS kking@...
