Project Summary - Summarize in approximately 200 words, the most important parts of the prpject presented <br />in Part 11. <br />The purpose of this project is to improve Emergency Medical. Service for Indian River <br />County. This system grill give our E.M.S. a much needed improved communications link <br />between the six ambulances and the two hospitals in Indian River County. The present <br />system is single channel VHF of limited range and is easily overloaded with the in- <br />creasing number of medical emergencies occurring in a growing population with more <br />vehicular and pedestrian traffic. The project would provide the ability to handle two <br />similtaneous emergencies, improve communications to and from the more remote parts of <br />the county and separate the dispatch function from the medical. channels. This project <br />would also bring Indian River County up to par with other counties in this part of <br />the state. <br />FEB . 71979 <br />a ' <br />w <br />U <br />t <br />s� <br />.39 PAGE 12 <br />
