About a year ago I talked with Leonard Winter, the operator of Ukiah Ambulance, about ambulance operating procedures. During the conversation Winter mentioned that he was working to roll Ukiah Ambulance into a nonprofit so he could get grant funding to provide paramedic-ALS (Advance Life Support) service to outlying areas like Anderson Valley. He subsequently put together and sent to me an impressive three ring binder with excerpts from CHP’s Ambulance Driver’s Handbook, California Vehicle Code, California Code of Regulations and California Health and Safety Code. A cover letter to the package bore the letterhead MEDSTAR AMBULANCE of Mendocino County, Inc. with him as CEO and again stated that non profit status “…will allow us to expand our areas of response into areas that are not currently being served or cannot be served on a per-profit model.”
