TOWNSHIP OF ORO-MEDONTE REPORT Report No. To: Prepared By: FD 2009-4 Mayor And Council Fire Chief R. Playfair Meeting Date: Subject: Motion # November 25, 2009 Pandemic Influenza Business Roll Continuity Plan I Staff R.M.S. File Preventative Initiatives RECOMENDATION(S): It is recommended that: Requires Action for Information Only 11,111 1-1 1. Council accept and approve the Pandemic Influenza Business Continuity Plan 2. Council approves attached Appendices for Staff Preventative initiatives for PHI N1. 3. Council to approve the plan and initiatives described in the Appendices for immediate implementation. 4. Council approves the Pandemic Influenza Business Continuity Plan to be included in the Township of Oro-Medonte Emergency response Plan. BACKGROUND: As we approach the Winter Season it is very evident that the flu season has arrived, however this year we are also faced with a very powerful influenza virus known as PH1N1 strain. This influenza is particularly serious as it affects a very large portion of our population, especially the young, old and those who may be child bearing. It is especially of concern because of the effects on those who contract this virus, with the ability to transmit, infect and to carry the virus throughout our community. Orders of caution from the Medical Community instructing that we must be aware of the preventative measures of hand washing, sneezing into your sleeve, distances to keep from others are two (2) meters, avoiding large concentrated crowds and the strong recommendation to become vaccinated are all good precautionary measures on behalf of all Township staff when dealing with the public. Fire and Emergency Services November 25, 2009 Report No. FD2009-4 Page 1 of 3 Page 12 of 97 Agenda Item # 10b) - Report No. FD 2009-4, Richard Playfair, Director of Fire & E... ANALYSIS: The current initiatives to prevent the impending growth of the virus known as PHI N1 will in fact affect everyone in some way or another in the next few Months in Ontario. Our Community is not exempt from this troublesome and health concern situation. Therefore, if approved the Oro- Medonte Fire & Emergency Services intends to embark on a rigorous preventative plan of action to protect our emergency personnel. Health & Safety Legislation is already in place requiring Supervisors to protect the Health of the worker. We must adhere to the Health & Safety Act , Section 27, (1), (2), (c), "Duties of the Supervisor" requires that "we take every precaution reasonable in circumstances for the protection of a worker", therefore, we must ensure is accomplished throughout the Township for Emergency and Non emergency personnel during these turbulent times ahead. The following preventative measures are being implemented to hopefully prevent the spread of any virus throughout the staff of the Emergency Services and Township Staff at other facilities, also in an effort for us to continue to perform our respective duties in serving the public. • Highly recommend that all staff be vaccinated. • Organize workplace vaccination centers throughout our community. • Install hand sanitizers throughout our public facilities. • Provide Emergency signage on hand washing, sneezing & coughing. • Stock up on N95 face masks, eye protection. • Inform all staff on emergency protocols • Develop pre-pandemic protocol. • Develop Pandemic protocol. • Provide signage that indicates to the public of the Emergency situation. These are the simple steps to help prevent the spread of the virus PH1 N1 throughout the workplace FINANCIAL: Financial implications are minimal POLICIES/LEGISLATION: The following legislation is required to be complied with under the Occupational Health & Safety Legislation Fire and hmergency Services November 25,_2009 Report No. FD2009-4 Page 2 of 3 Page 13 of 97 Agenda Item # 10b) - Report No. FD 2009-4, Richard Playfair, Director of Fire & E... CONSULTATIONS: SMT members ATTACHMENTS: Appendix A SOP Fire Emergency Staff Appendix B Infectious Disease Control Protocol Appendix C SOG Non Emergency Staff CONCLUSION: Approval of the Influenza Continuity Business Plan and attached appendices by Council will allow Staff to continue with initiatives outlined in the Plan and the attached SOP's in order to further protect our staff and the general visiting public from PH1 N1 virus.

Township of Oro-Medonte Pandemic Influenza Business Continuity Plan Purpose This Pandemic Influenza Business Continuity Plan has been developed as a guide for the Townships departments to facilitate the maintenance of essential services and or functions during a Pandemic emergencies. This plan is designed for and will be included as a subsection of the Townships Emergency plan. By preparing for and managing outbreaks of influenza, the Township can ensure continuity and maintain essential community services. The Township can play an extensive role in controlling risks by taking practical actions to manage pandemic influenza. This plan is aligned with the OHPIP (Ontario Health plan for an Influenza Pandemic), the CPIP (Canadian Pandemic Influenza Plan) and the Simcoe County Health Unit Pandemic Influenza Plan. A well managed plan and partnership with the Simcoe County Health Unit and the Soldiers Memorial and Royal Victoria Hospitals will reduce the likelihood of widespread infection and the consequences of a Pandemic emergency. Background Influenza outbreaks have occurred for centuries and there have been three Pandemics in the previous century alone, the Spanish (1918), Asian (1957), and the Hong Kong (1968). Experts predict that another is overdue although the timing and the pattern are unpredictable. When a Pandemic flu outbreak occurs, the impact could be devastating. Estimates suggest that in Ontario over 8 million people will be infected, of those 4 million will be clinically ill and 1200 will possibly die. It has been projected that the workforces will have absentee rates of 30-35% due to the viral effects on employees and their families. Based on the above projections, the Township of Oro-Medonte could experience massive staff shortages. Since Pandemic flu spreads the same way as seasonal flu - through droplets contained in sneezes and coughs and by hand contact, basic precautions can greatly reduce its spread. For both the public and employees there is an expectation that services will continue as usual and uninterrupted. In this context the disruptions created by the 2003 Power Outage and the SARS outbreak emphasizes the need for and the benefits of an overall Emergency Plan and in this case a Pandemic Influenza Business Continuity Plan. Definitions Influenza Influenza is a contagious respiratory illness caused by a group of viruses including influenza Types A, B, C. Most seasonal influenza epidemics are caused by influenza Types A, B, Type C rarely causes human illness. Influenza can cause mild to severe illness. Influenza usually starts suddenly. Common symptoms include: • Fever (usually high, lasting 3 to 4 days) • Headache (often severe) • Aches and pains (often severe) • Fatigue and weakness (can last up to 2 weeks) -3- Page 17 of 97 Agenda Item # 10b) - Report No. FD 2009-4, Richard Playfair, Director of Fire & E... • Extreme exhaustion (very common at the outset) • Stuffy nose, sneezing, sore throat. • Chest discomfort and cough. • Nausea, vomiting and diarrhea (in children) Many different illnesses, including the common cold, can have similar symptoms. While most healthy people recover from influenza without complications, older people, young children, and people with certain health conditions are at high risk for serious complications from influenza. Some of the complications caused by influenza include: • Bacterial pneumonia • Dehydration • Worsening of chronic medical conditions, such as congestive heart failure, asthma or diabetes. • Children and adults may develop sinus problems and ear infections. The incubation period for influenza is 1 to 3 days. People with influenza are infectious and able to transmit the virus for up to 24 hours before symptoms appear. Adults are infectious for 3 to 5 days after symptoms appear while children are infectious for up to 7 days after symptoms appear. People with influenza tend to shed more viruses in their respiratory secretions in the early stages of the illness. Viral shedding tends to last longer in infants, young children and people with weak or compromised immune systems. The importance of influenza as a major human health threat is due to a number of factors, including a high degree of transmissibility, the presence of a vast reservoir (primarily infected birds) of novel (new) variants, and the usual properties of the influenza virus genome. Influenza A viruses are composed of two major antigenic structures essential to vaccines and immunity: hem agglutinin (H) and neuraminidase (N). The structure of these two components defines the virus subtype. Pandemic Influenza Pandemic influenza refers to the occurrence of a new strain of influenza that circulates worldwide. The new strain, which usually occurs due to "antigenic shift", will not have been previously seen in humans and so there will be no past immunity to provide protection. In past influenza pandemics, emergence of new strains has caused significant hospitalizations and deaths, and has spread rapidly around the world. The 20th century pandemics were caused by the H1 N1, H2N2 and H3N3 strains. H1 N1 and H3N3 viruses continue to circulate and cause yearly epidemics of influenza today. Certain conditions make influenza pandemic more likely: • A new influenza A virus arising from a major genetic change i.e., an antigenic shift. • A susceptible population with little or no immunity. • A virus that is transmitted efficiency from person to person. • A virulent virus with the capacity to cause serious illness or death. • Pandemic History and Timeline. -4- Page 18 of 97 Agenda Item # 10b) - Report No. FD 2009-4, Richard Playfair, Director of Fire & E... Guiding Principles Understanding the Risk: Decisions should be base on a good understanding of the science underlying and influenza outbreak and the risks involved. The factors contributing to the presence and spread of the disease must be understood. The Oro-Medonte Townships leaders must have a clear perception of the likelihood and consequences of a Pandemic influenza. Focus on Actions: Knowledge is important but only actions can help manage pandemic risks. The Township need to take steps to prevent the spread and severity of the disease. We need to plan now to protect our employees. Internal Protection First: The Townships first responsibility is to its employees and the services that we provide. Protecting the workforce will help avoid interruptions to our essential services. The Township must also have facilities available to assist the Simcoe County Health officials in caring for community members. Protection of Employees: Employees will look to the Township leaders for leadership and protection including revising the workplace procedures to minimize exposure to the virus both from internal and external contacts; work from home policies; care giving for affected family members. Ensure the Deliverv of Essential Services: Reduction in our workforce will place the delivery of essential services at risk. Interruption of critical public services will compound the effects caused by the influenza. Surmort of Health Authorities: The Township will be expected to assist health care officials in delivering health services through non-medical means. We may be asked to provide access to our facilities, to help with mass immunization. Arena facilities may be needed to act as temporary morgues. Minimizina Net Financial Impacts: The Township's expenses are likely to increase and revenues may drop through decreased activity and use of the Township's services. The involvement in emergency planning for the possible impending Pandemic can offset any negative financial effects to the Township of Oro-Medonte. Collaboration: Pandemic influenza and its consequences can be managed more effectively through collaborative efforts of many stakeholders including Simcoe County EMO, Simcoe County Health Unit, Mutual Aid Association, neighboring Municipalities, Provincial Government and the Federal Government. Simcoe Countv Health Unit (SCHU): The SCHU works in partnership with local agencies and residents to promote health, prevention of illness, and protection against disease. -5- Page 19 of 97 Agenda Item # 10b) - Report No. FD 2009-4, Richard Playfair, Director of Fire & E... The goal of the Simcoe County Health Unit has been to encourage healthy lifestyles and a safe environment for residents of Simcoe County. The health unit also monitors health trends in our communities and keeps track of local disease statistics. Federal Government: Health Canada is the primary federal agency with the authority to oversee the federal response to pandemic influenza. The Nation Pandemic Influenza Committee will coordinate National influenza response, communication with the World Health Organization (WHO) and other Nations, distribution of vaccine and anti- viral medications and allocation of the National Emergency Stockpile System (NESS) of emergency Hospitals. Provincial Government: The Ontario Government implements National recommendations for surveillance and immunization programs, coordinates the investigation of outbreaks, provides guidelines and direction to local health units, such as Simcoe County Health Unit (SCHU). Strategic Approach Emergency Management in Ontario and Canada is organized into five stages: 1. Prevention - involves activities taken to prevent or avoid an emergency. 2. Mitigation - involves actions that can reduce the impact of an emergency. Examples are: Immunization, social distancing and infection prevention. 3. Preparedness - involves measures that are put into place before an Emergency occurs that will enhance the effectiveness of response and recovery activities. 4. Response - involves the coordinated actions that would be undertaken to an emergency. 5. Recovery - recovery involves activities that are conducted to help recover from the emergency and return to a state of normalcy. The ongoing care and treatment of the sick would be an example. This Pandemic Influenza Business Continuity Plan is based on a four (4) part strategic approach: • Be Ready - Departments will identify those services that are critical to our Customers. They will also identify those that are less critical and that can be curtailed to free up resources for the critical services. A process will be developed to redistribute those resources. • Be Watchful - The Ontario Government and the Simcoe County Health Unit is charged with communicating the information to the Township of Oro-Medonte on influenza activity. The Ministry of Health has an active screening and surveillance program established. The departments function will be to watch for warning signs of infection. The province in collaboration with local health units will provide stakeholders information on identification and prevention of the disease. • Be Decisive - The Township can act decisively to manage and contain the spread of the disease on its employees by taking precautionary steps at the prevention phase, by educating employees to prevention methods and by reviewing services offered that gather the public in public places. • Be Transparent - Communication with our employees will be key in aiding in the prevention and spread of the disease. Public communications through the Township and the SCHU health unit officials will be paramount to the delivery of accurate and up to date Pandemic Influenza information. -6- Page 20 of 97 Agenda Item # 10b) - Report No. FD 2009-4, Richard Playfair, Director of Fire & E... Infection Control The following are infection control measures that should be instituted and promoted now as common practices by all departments within the Township of Ora-Medonte: • Annual Influenza Vaccination - encourage all staff to get the annual influenza vaccination. While this will not protect from the pandemic new virus strain, it will prevent other forms of influenza in 70% of the healthy population. • Hand Washing - frequent hand washing with soap and water or hand sanitizers is very effect in limiting the spread of infection. Effective hand washing involves wetting hands, applying liquid soap, scrubbing for 15 seconds, rinsing and drying with a paper towel. Effective use of sanitizers involves applying enough sanitizer for hands to stay wet for 15 seconds, spreading sanitizer over all surfaces of hands and rubbing hands together until dry. Hands should be Washed or Sanitized: • After coughing, sneezing or blowing the nose. • After using the washroom. • Before preparing food. • Before eating. • Before touching the eyes, mouth or nose. • After shaking hands. • Sneeze, Cough Etiquette - Covering your mouth and nose while sneezing and coughing will help limit the spread of infection. If possible cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or cough, sneeze into your upper sleeve. Dispose of tissue and wash your hands immediately. • Stay at Home if ill - Staying at Home when ill will help limit the spread of infection. In all workplaces, schools and childcare centers, it should be a common practice to stay at home when ill. • Environmental Cleaning - The virus can survive on environmental surfaces (up to 48 hours on hard surfaces) frequent cleaning can reduce the spread of the virus in the home or at workstations. Cleaning should take place using common household disinfectants. • Increase Fresh Air - in buildings where possible. • Reduce Non-Essential Travel - and avoid crowds and close contact with people who are sick. • Practice other Good Health Habits - Get plenty of sleep, be physically active, manage stress, drink plenty of fluids, eat nutritious foods and avoid smoking. Business Continuity Planning Process The primary threat to maintaining essential services during a Pandemic Influenza is high absenteeism. The objective of a business continuity plan is to determine how to maintain essential services and functions given the high rates of absenteeism for reasons that may include: 1. Sickness 2. Staying at home to care for those family members who are ill. 3. Staying at home to care for children in the event that schools and daycares are closed. 4. Fear of returning to the work environment. -7- Page 21 of 97 Agenda Item # 10b) - Report No. FD 2009-4, Richard Playfair, Director of Fire & E... There are five (5) phases to our planning process which will be described below: 1. Identification of Essential Service (Complete Appendix 1) • List all the services provided by our departments. • Break the functions down within each service. • Using the provided definitions assign a priority to each function. • Priority 1 services are those that relate to Health and Safety and cannot be eliminated or reduced during a Pandemic. • Assign a rating to each function as to the potential for increased demand for that function during a pandemic. 2. Staffing Essential Services (Complete Appendix 2) • Utilize only the Priority 1 functions from Appendix 1. Enter current staff assigned to function. • Enter the minimum staff required to perform the function. Enter Pandemic staff (65% of current staff). • Calculate the shortfall (C-D). 3. Business Continuity for Priority/Function Services (Complete Appendix 3) • Develop your Business Continuity Plan for each function. • Utilize the Priority 1 functions only. • This will ensure that there is a plan to maintain essential services in the event of a Pandemic. 4. Considerations • Who are the decision makers and their alternatives? • Will there be any surge arising from the pandemic? • Are there alternate staffing resources (retirees, volunteers)? • Develop and implement cross training plans for staff? • Are there enough supplies to last for 6 weeks? 5. Complete the Plan • Communicate your plan with all staff so they become familiar with the plan. • Show which Priority 2 and 3 functions will be discontinued, freeing up staff for essential services. • Where applicable, have staff trained for utilization in the delivery of the Priority 1 services. • Send a complete copy of the plan to HR Services where it can be compiled for the Township and used during any impending Pandemic.

ORO-MEDONTE FIRE & EMERGENCY SERVICES OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE SUBJECT: INFECTIOUS DISEASE CONTROL Procedure: DATE: October 28, 2009 REVISION: 1. PURPOSE It is the goal of The Oro-Medonte Fire & Emergency Services to adequately protect all its members from the risk of transmission of communicable diseases, not only during emergency incidents, but also in all work environments. The OMFES recognizes the potential for exposure of its members to infectious diseases in the performance of their duties. In the emergency care setting, infectious disease status of a patient is unknown. For that reason all patients must be considered infectious and Body Surface Isolation precautions against exposure to communicable diseases MUST be taken. The OMFES will provide the appropriate protective clothing and equipment in sizes to fit all personnel. Such clothing and equipment will be accessible to those needing them. The OMFES will provide the appropriate training in the use of such clothing and equipment, as well as providing instruction on infectious diseases and methods to prevent infection. The protocol for communicable diseases is available in the Section 21 book 2. RESPONSIBILITY It is the responsibility for all members of the Oro-Medonte Fire & Emergency Services to follow proper procedures in regard to infectious disease control. Members should also point out risks to others in order to safeguard all members of the OMFES. Members should not attend work if they have been exposed to a possible contagious communicable disease. The OMFES will appoint a Designated Officer (DO) to coordinate all infectious disease control activities. To minimize risk of exposure, the OMFES will provide gloves, face masks, gowns and eye protection, along with the necessary cleaning and disinfecting supplies. The OMFES will provide initial, yearly and "as needed" continuing education to personnel on communicable diseases and infection control. Standard medical treatment will be given to exposed personnel and necessary immunizations will be made available to protect personnel from potentially infectious diseases. The OMFES will maintain a record of exposures and treatment in each member's confidential medical file. Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) Exposure Management Fire personnel are to be considered occupationally exposed to HBV and will be offered HBV vaccination free of charge. Vaccination will be provided by the OMFES according to recommended medical practice and proper testing shall be Page 28 of 97 Agenda Item # 10b) - Report No. FD 2009-4, Richard Playfair, Director of Fire & E... ORO-MEDONTE FIRE & EMERGENCY SERVICES OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE SUBJECT: INFECTIOUS DISEASE CONTROL Procedure: DATE: October 28, 2009 REVISION: done to ensure that the vaccine has been effective. When an exposure occurs, an examination of the circumstances will determine whether further medical treatment is indicated. If members choose not to take the vaccine, they may change their mind at any time and still have the vaccine provided free of charge. Exposure to Hepatitis other than "B" will be treated according to the current recommendations of the base hospital infection control officers. Confidentiality Contact/Exposure forms and medical records shall remain confidential and SHALL NOT be released without the express, written consent of the member. If the infectious exposure places other personnel at risk, appropriate steps will be taken to remove the risk without disclosing the member's confidential medical record. To reduce the number of personnel handling forms utilized to report exposures, forms should be hand delivered to the DO or sent in a sealed envelope marked "Confidential". 3. GENERAL INFORMATION REGARDING INFECTIOUS DISEASES Infectious substances are transmitted via an infected person's blood, and/or body fluids visibly contaminated with blood or other potentially infectious material which includes, but is not limited to: mucus, cerebrospinal fluid, semen, vaginal secretions and placental fluids. Generally, the skin is a barrier against exposure to infectious substances. However, if the skin has open sores, cuts or abrasions, this protective barrier becomes a route for transmitting infection. Airborne respiratory secretions from a cough or sneeze also increase the risk of an exposure to some diseases, such as Tuberculosis (TB) or Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS). Contact with blood, or body fluids visibly contaminated with blood, pose the greatest risk of transmitting certain diseases, such as Hepatitis B Virus, AIDS/HIV, Hepatitis C and Syphilis. The following list describes some diseases, which may be considered an occupational hazard when providing pre-hospital emergency care services. INFECTION MODE OF TRANSMISSION RISK IN EMS SETTING Hepatitis A fecal to oral low Hepatitis B blood or body fluids to high 2 Page 29 of 97 Agenda Item # 10b) - Report No. FD 2009-4, Richard Playfair, Director of Fire & E... ORO-MEDONTE FIRE & EMERGENCY SERVICES OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE SUBJECT: INFECTIOUS DISEASE CONTROL Procedure: DATE: October 28, 2009 REVISION: blood or mucous membranes Hepatitis C blood or body fluids to blood or mucous membranes Measles respiratory droplets to mucous membranes Meningitis respiratory secretions Tuberculosis airborne SARS airborne Believed at this time 4. PROTECTIVE MEASURES high very high low (unless mouth to mouth) low low This portion of the procedure outlines protective measures members MUST take when treating patients. These precautions MUST be taken whether the patient has symptoms or not. It will be the member's responsibility to initiate protective measures. All members have a responsibility to make sure other members are taking proper precautions. A. PERSONAL PROTECTIVE MEASURES Observe BODY SUBSTANCE ISOLATION PRECAUTIONS for all patients: 1. Use Nitrile gloves during patient contact. 2. Minimize the number of treatment personnel. 3. Have patient turn head or cover mouth when sneezing or coughing. 4. Avoid direct contact with body fluids. 5. DO NOT wipe eyes, nose, mouth or ears before washing hands. 6. DO NOT eat or drink anything before washing hands. 7. Members with open cuts on the skin or skin abrasions, rashes etc. SHALL NOT engage in direct patient contact, nor shall they handle medical waste or contaminated patient care equipment. 3 Page 30 of 97 Agenda Item # 10b) - Report No. FD 2009-4, Richard Playfair, Director of Fire & E... ORO-MEDONTE FIRE & EMERGENCY SERVICES OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE SUBJECT: INFECTIOUS DISEASE CONTROL Procedure: DATE: October 28, 2009 REVISION: 8. If any exposure to blood or body fluids occurs, personnel are to immediately wash and disinfect the area with soap and water or with a disinfecting agent until such washing can be done. 9. Potentially infectious materials shall be placed in leak proof container. If such containers should leak, they MUST be placed in another non- permeable container. 10. During any treatment of patients having a disease suspected of spread through airborne particles, the patient will be masked using either a non-rebreather or N-95 face mask. 11. Should it become necessary to violate any of these precautions, any violation shall be reported, and a review of the incident will be conducted by the Designated Officer. B. HAND PROTECTION The use of Nitrile Gloves is strongly recommended for any patient contact. Spare gloves will be kept on all vehicles. Disposing of gloves may be done in regular trash containers unless they have blood and/or body fluids on them. Contaminated gloves must be removed so the contaminates do not come in contact with the members skin and discarded in the yellow bio-hazard containers located in the OMFES vehicles or in the appropriate location in the ambulance. If personnel are unable to properly wash their hands before treating another patient, fresh aloves are to be donned. IF FIREFIGHTING GLOVES ARE WORN DURING PATIENT CARE, MEDICAL GLOVES ARE TO BE WORN UNDERNEATH. C. PERSONAL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT The Oro-Medonte Fire & Emergency Services provides the following Personal Protective Equipment to its employees: • Gloves • Gowns • Safety glasses • Face Masks The purpose of PPE is to prevent blood and body fluids from reaching the workers skin, mucous membranes, or personal clothing. It must create an effective barrier between the exposed worker and any blood or body fluids. 4 Page 31 of 97 Agenda Item # 10b) - Report No. FD 2009-4, Richard Playfair, Director of Fire & E... ORO-MEDONTE FIRE & EMERGENCY SERVICES OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE SUBJECT: INFECTIOUS DISEASE CONTROL Procedure: DATE: October 28, 2009 REVISION: 5. CLEANING AND DISINFECTING A. HAND WASHING Health Canada states that "hand washing before and after contact with patients is the single most important means of preventing the spread of infection" Washing your hands after each patient is a must. Use soap/disinfectant available on OMFES vehicles when other facilities are not available. Field cleaning MUST be followed by hand washing as soon as possible. The Oro-Medonte Fire & Emergency Services recommends hand washing a minimum of 30 seconds to properly rid the hands of contaminants picked up while handling patients. Vigorous scrubbing is essential. The following is a suggested method to wash hands. 1. Wet hands 2-3 inches above the wrists (or as high as necessary to remove contaminants). 2. Apply hand cleaning agent. 3. Rub hands to work up lather 4. Using a rotating motion, apply friction to all surfaces of hands and wrists, including backs of hands, between fingers and around and under nails. Interlace fingers and rub up and down. Cup hands inside of each other and rub back and forth; continue for 30 seconds. 5. Holding hands downward, rinse thoroughly, allowing water to drop off fingertips. 6. Repeat procedure. 7. Dry hands thoroughly with paper towel or electric hand dryer. 8. Turn off faucet with clean paper towel to avoid contaminating your hands on a dirty faucet. B. CLEANING AND DISINFECTING EQUIPMENT It is imperative that personnel properly clean and disinfect reusable equipment to avoid contaminating patients and other personnel. Cleaning removes all foreign materials from the equipment, while disinfecting eliminates pathogenic micro organisms (some germs and bacteria's). Equipment that has been contaminated by blood and/or body fluids shall be decontaminated through cleaning and disinfection, or disposed of as contaminated waste. ALL cleaning and 5 Page 32 of 97 Agenda Item # 10b) - Report No. FD 2009-4, Richard Playfair, Director of Fire & E... ORO-MEDONTE FIRE & EMERGENCY SERVICES OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE SUBJECT: INFECTIOUS DISEASE CONTROL Procedure: DATE: October 28, 2009 REVISION: disinfecting SHALL be done using heavy-duty rubber gloves (such as Playtex Living Gloves) and eye protection in areas designed for that purpose. Other protective measures shall be taken when appropriate. 1. Environmental surfaces (fixed surfaces such as counter tops, flooring, walls, seats, etc.) which have become soiled with blood or body fluids MUST be cleaned and disinfected using the approved disinfecting/cleaning agent in use. Spray the disinfectant on the material and wait the manufacturers recommended kill time. Wear gloves and use disposable paper towels to remove contaminants. After removal of visible material, disinfect the area with the disinfectant spray again; allow disinfectant to remain on according to manufacturer's recommendations. Dispose of used paper towels as contaminated waste. Such surfaces include apparatus floors, seats and counter tops. 2. Reusable medical equipment (such as backboards, straps, defibrillators, etc.) which comes in contact with blood or body fluids MUST be cleaned with soap and hot water to remove all foreign materials after patient contact. If equipment is contaminated by blood or body fluids, it must be disinfected after cleaning. C. CLEANING AND DISINFECTING EQUIPMENT REUSABLE MEDICAL EQUIPMENT; 1. This will be accomplished by using the approved disinfecting/cleaning agent in use. Spray the disinfectant on the material and wait the manufacturers recommended kill time at least 10 minutes. When immediate cleaning or disinfection is not possible, reusable equipment shall be secured to prevent contamination of other equipment and personnel. Such equipment shall be cleaned and/or disinfected at the earliest possible opportunity. D. UNIFORM CLOTHING DISINFECTION Contaminated clothing should be changed as soon as possible and washed in detergent and water as recommended by the manufacturer. Contaminated clothing is to be handled using gloves and should be put in YELLOW bio-hazard bags, appropriately labelled and washed. 6 Page 33 of 97 Agenda Item # 10b) - Report No. FD 2009-4, Richard Playfair, Director of Fire & E... ORO-MEDONTE FIRE & EMERGENCY SERVICES OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE SUBJECT: INFECTIOUS DISEASE CONTROL Procedure: DATE: October 28, 2009 REVISION: 2. Contaminated uniform clothing will be washed at the OMFES station; contaminated clothing should NEVER be washed at home. Boots and shoes shall be washed with soap and water to remove contaminants. They should be washed as soon as possible to prevent the tracking of contaminants. If contaminated with blood and/or body fluids. The approved disinfecting/cleaning agent will be used according to manufacturers instructions. Spray the disinfectant on the material and wait the manufacturers recommended "kill time"of at least 10 minutes. 6. MEDICAL WASTE DISPOSAL BIO-HAZARDOUS WASTE IS ANY MATERIAL, CLOTHING, ETC. THAT HAS BEEN CONTAMINATED BY BLOOD AND/OR BODY FLUID. Medical waste can be produced during medical operations. Proper disposal depends on whether the waste is contaminated, liquid, solid or sharp. Medical waste contaminated, or suspected of being contaminated, by blood or body fluid shall be placed in YELLOW bio-hazard bags and disposed of by ambulance staff, at the hospital in hazardous waste containers or in the Bio Hazardous waste container at the fire station. Disposable equipment shall be treated as hazardous waste in the same manner. Liquid waste shall be flushed into septic or sewer system utilizing toilets. Sinks ARE NOT to be used to dump contaminated liquids. Body fluids in public areas are to be flushed with water into storm drains or sewers. In rural areas absorbent material may be used to collect the fluids, placed in a YELLOW bio-hazard bag, secured at the fire station and have the approved disposal company notified for immediate pick up. The area should be washed with copious amounts of water. Extremely soiled, bloody blankets shall be disposed of as hazardous waste, preferably at the hospital. Medical sharps should be handled by the ambulance or medical crew. If the OMFES crew needs to handle medical sharps including sharp objects contaminated with blood or body fluid the following precautions should be followed. 7 Page 34 of 97 Agenda Item # 10b) - Report No. FD 2009-4, Richard Playfair, Director of Fire & E... ORO-MEDONTE FIRE & EMERGENCY SERVICES OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE SUBJECT: INFECTIOUS DISEASE CONTROL Procedure: DATE: October 28, 2009 REVISION: 1. All personnel should be made aware of the sharps location. 2. Sharps may be placed in the sharp container on the ambulance. 3. The sharps container or impermeable container should be brought to the sharp object. With one hand the sharp object placed in the container. 4. Personnel carrying sharps will not carry other equipment. 5. Sharps shall never be placed in pockets. 6. Sharp edges will have a blanket or similar device placed on them and marked as a bio-hazard. YELLOW bio-hazard bags will be available in the Universal Precautions Kit on all front line vehicles. These bags shall be used to isolate biological hazards. It is preferred to have bio-hazardous waste brought to the hospital for disposal however, this is not always possible. Biologically contaminated material will be defined as any article that comes in contact with human (patient) blood or body fluid. A bio-hazard waste container is available at fire headquarters. This container will be emptied automatically every 24 weeks. If the container needs to be emptied prior to the prearranged pick up, the number of the approved disposal bio-hazard waste company should be notified (the number is in the dispatch book). The approved bio-hazard waste company shall be contacted for pick up of absorbent material used to absorb biological hazardous waste. Yellow hard plastic bio-hazard containers located in the vehicles shall be used to transport used DRY PPE used in patient care. The PPE placed in these containers may be disposed of in the regular garbage upon the vehicles return to the station. Should the yellow hard plastic bio-hazard containers become contaminated with blood or body fluid, they shall be rinsed with a 1:10 solution of bleach and allowed to dry before being placed back on the vehicle. 7. EXPOSURE REPORTING 1. Oro-Medonte Fire & Emergency Services personnel who are exposed to blood or body fluids during the performance of their 8 Page 35 of 97 Agenda Item # 10b) - Report No. FD 2009-4, Richard Playfair, Director of Fire & E... ORO-MEDONTE FIRE & EMERGENCY SERVICES OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE SUBJECT: INFECTIOUS DISEASE CONTROL Procedure: DATE: October 28, 2009 REVISION: duties MUST report the exposure in order to protect themselves and the public. If the exposure results in an injury that requires immediate medical treatment and transport to a medical facility the employee will be transported without delay, notification of the DO may be done concurrently. 2. When OMFES members are exposed to infectious contaminants, diseases or hazardous materials the OMFES exposure/contact report and the OMFES Incident Investigation Report are to be filled out and the DO notified immediately. Following a report of an exposure, the DO will begin investigating the patient for possible communicable diseases to determine the need for treatment of the exposed individual. If considered necessary by the DO, the hospitals Infectious Control Specialist will be contacted for consultation and the Medical Officer of Health. Initiation of the documentation process is the responsibility of the member and company officer. The OMFES will maintain a record of exposures and treatment in each member's confidential medical file. This procedure is designed to help prevent infection from occurring in both patients and OMFES personnel. This goes beyond simple protective measures, such as donning gloves or washing hands. Infection control is a comprehensive, pro-active approach to managing the risks associated with communicable diseases. Bio Hazardous waste will be removed from the fire station by an approved hazardous waste disposal company on a pre-arranged basis. 9 Page 36 of 97 Agenda Item # 10b) - Report No. FD 2009-4, Richard Playfair, Director of Fire & E...

REPORT (WTGh'AG&"A0z Proud Heritage, Exciting Future Report No. F D2009-5 Meeting Date: November 25, 2009 Roll To: Council Subject: Change of Dispatch Services RECOMMENDATION(S): It is recommended that: Requires Action Prepared By: Hugh Murray Motion # R.M.S. File For Information Only 1. Report No. FD2009-5 be received and adopted; 2. That the Township of Oro-Medonte enters in to a Fire Dispatching Agreement with the City of Orillia for a term of two years. 3. That the Township of Oro-Medonte enter in to an agreement with the City of Orillia for a term of two years for 911(CERB) Central Emergency Reporting Bureau 4. And That the Township's current providers be notified of Council's decision. BACKGROUND: Currently the Oro-Medonte Fire and Emergency Services Department receives its dispatching through Barrie Fire and Emergency services contracted through an agreement. The Township receives its 911 (CERB) services through an agreement with the Ontario Provincial Police and the County of Simcoe and Simcoe municipalities. When a 911 call is placed, it goes through the OPP 911 Center for Emergency Reporting Bureau (CERB). It is then given to the requested agency (Police, Fire or Ambulance). The person on the line may just ask for Ambulance, but may, in fact, require the Fire Department as well. The call would be sent over to the ambulance agency where they would dispatch an ambulance, and at the same time continue to gather information from the caller. The information gathered may also determine that the Fire Department is required due to a number of factors: the fire department may need to respond because of a delayed response from ambulance, or that the call may be due to a motor vehicle collision. Fire and Emergency Services Report No. FD2009-5 November 25, 2009 Page 1 of 3 Page 43 of 97 Agenda Item # 10c) - Report No. FD 2009-5, Richard Playfair, Director of Fire & E... If it is determined that the fire department is required, ambulance dispatch then needs to contact Barrie Fire Control to dispatch our fire department. Barrie then has to determine the station or stations required and proceed to put the call out to our department. In the meantime, the ambulance is well on the way to the emergency. By having our dispatching and 911 (CERB) handled by the Orillia Fire Department it would all be done by one agency at the same location. The operator at the Orillia Fire Department receiving the 911 call would send the call to the requested agency as is done by the OPP (CERB), but the difference is that they stay on the call when it is transferred to ambulance and can determine if fire is required immediately and would then dispatch our fire department more quickly. ANALYSIS: By moving our dispatching and 911 calls to Orillia it will greatly improve our response to emergencies by getting our firefighters on the road sooner. It will also give us better information as the dispatcher is also the 911 call taker and we do not have to have our dispatch call back to ambulance for additional information. The dispatching cost would remain the same to move to Orillia. However, there would be an increase cost for the 911 (CERB) services. In order to make the change to Orillia for 911 (CERB) services 180 days written notice to the OPP and the County of Simcoe is required. FINANCIAL: The current charge for 911 (CERB) is $0.561 per capita ($10,000) CERB increase of ($4,788.12) Moving to the Orillia (CERB) would be $0.80 per capita 14,788.12) An increase of $4,788.12 to the 2009 budget.

ATTACHMENTS: City of Orillia Contract for Dispatching City of Orillia contract for 911 Central Emergency Reporting Bureau (CERB) CONCLUSION: Quick response to an emergency call is one of the most important goals of any fire department. Through our analysis and our experience in being dispatched to emergency calls by Barrie Fire Control, it has been noted that often ambulance is called to a scene first, then as additional information is gathered, a call goes out to the fire department to assist, extricate victims from motor vehicles, provide traffic control to ensure the safety of a scene. We have determined the benefits of using the dispatching services of the Orillia Fire Department as compared to Barrie Fire Control as follows: • All police, fire and ambulance dispatches are performed through the same service provider and the dispatcher remains on the line to monitor the call, notify the department of any changes and updates • This will ultimately improve our response time to every emergency. • Barrie Fire Control has increased the number of departments for which they are now providing dispatching services and at times during emergencies we are asked to standby during our emergency. This has been our concern, in which not only is dispatch delayed in reaching Barrie Fire but also during simultaneous emergencies in Simcoe County in where time is of importance in the delivery of emergency communications. The delivery of Emergency Dispatching from Orillia Fire will ultimately give Oro-Medonte Fire & Emergency Services a much quicker notification and response time to every emergency by the collection of calls from Orillia (CERB) directly and dispatching immediately to our Fire & Emergency Services directly.

Report No. CS2009-037 be received and adopted. Motion # R.M.S. File For Information Only 2. The Pound Keeping Services be awarded to the OSPCA - Orillia Branch, for a period of 18 months, at the annual fee of $18,000, commencing January 1, 2010. 3. The Clerk bring forward the appropriate by-law for Council's consideration. 4. And that the parties who submitted proposals be advised of Council's decision. BACKGROUND: In February 2008, Council enacted an updated Animal Control By-law which consolidated the previous Animal Control By-law and its' amending by-laws. From July 1, 1997 to present, the Township has entered into various agreements with the Ontario Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (OSPCA), also known as the Ontario Humane Society, to provide services as Pound Keeper and Animal Control Officer, to enforce the Township's Animal Control By-law. The current agreement with OSPCA expires December 31, 2009. In September 2008, the Township hired a full-time contract Chief Municipal Law Enforcement Officer (CMLEO). From April 2009 to present, there has been a contract Municipal Law Enforcement Officer (MLEO) working with the CMLEO on a full-time basis. Throughout 2009, both the CMLEO and MLEO have augmented the service provided by the OSPCA with respect to the enforcement of the Animal Control By-law. Corporate Services Report No. CS2009-037 November 25, 2009 Page 1 of 4 Page 46 of 97 Agenda Item # 10d) - Report No. CS 2009-37, Doug Irwin, Director of Corporate Ser... \6a -a At its meeting of October 7, 2009, Council received and adopted Confidential Report No. CS2009-032, which proposed that the Township undertake the enforcement of its Animal Control By-law effective January 2010, and directed staff to request proposals for the provision of Pound Keeping services for an 18 month period, commencing January 2010. The enforcement of the Animal Control By-law ensures compliance with the regulations of the By-law. This includes such items as: licensing of dogs; maximum number of dogs; dogs running at large; dogs becoming a nuisance; removal and disposal of dog excrement; and possession of prohibited animals. Staff proceeded with the requesting of proposals for Pound Keeping services in accordance with the Township's Purchasing By-law. Five (5) organizations were provided packages and asked to submit proposals for the Township's consideration. Proposals were to be submitted by 3:00 p.m. on November 13, 2009. Two submissions were received from the call for proposals, and these submissions were opened at 4:00 p.m. on November 13, 2009. ANALYSIS: Proposals were submitted by Pine Ridge Pet Centre Ltd. and the OSPCA - Orillia Branch. The proposals were structured to provide costing for Claimed Dogs and Unclaimed Dogs. The owner of the dog would be responsible for the appropriate charges for Claimed Dogs, while the Township would be responsible for charges related to Unclaimed Dogs. I Claimed Dogs Administration fee Daily Board Euthanize and Disposal Disposal only Isolation fee After hours fee Pine Ridge Pet Centre $50.00 $35.00 $140.00 unhealthy dogs only $1.25/lb $50.00 $90.00 emergency fee/animal $35.00 per animal OSPCA - Orillia Branch $50.00 $25.00 $155.00 $50.00 $300.00 for 10 days $2,000.00/year** Unclaimed Dogs $250.00 $350.00 7 days maximum then transfer dog to OSPCA **OSPCA After hours fee to assure Township staff 24 hour access into OSPCA facility. Corporate Services Report No. CS2009-037 November 25, 2009 Page 2 of 4 Page 47 of 97 Agenda Item # 10d) - Report No. CS 2009-37, Doug Irwin, Director of Corporate Ser... F 0d 0J The two parties also submitted hours of operation for the pound, being as follows: Pine Ridge Pet Centre OSPCA - Orillia Branch Pound Open Monday to Friday 8:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. 3:00 p.m. to 5:45 p.m. Saturday 8:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. 4:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. with notice Sunday 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. 4:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday to Friday 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Saturday 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Sunday 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Pound Closed Closed Holidays Closed Monday-Friday 12:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. Closed Saturday 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. Closed Sunday 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Closed on Statutory Holidays It is noted that the Pine Ridge Pet Centre proposal identifies that it would keep Unclaimed Dogs for a maximum of 7 days, per the Animal Control By-law, and would then transfer any Unclaimed Dogs to the OSPCA. Given that Pine Ridge Pet Centre would transfer any Unclaimed Dogs, which become the property of the Township, to the OSPCA, and would not be providing adoption services for these dogs, it is recommended that the Township continue working with the OSPCA - Orillia Branch for the provision of Pound Keeping services. The OSPCA - Orillia Branch also offered an alternative to the individual pricing models proposed. The OPSCA offered the same services for an annual fee of $18,000.00, which includes the $2,000.00 After hours fee. The OSPCA annual proposal is structured utilizing statistics from previous and present years. On average from 2006 to present, there have been 43 dogs impounded per year, with 29 of the dogs being claimed per year. This annual pricing proposal would reduce the clerical burden on both the Township and the OSPCA, and any confusion of the exchange of cost and statistical information for billing purposes. It is recognized that there may be fluctuation in the statistics in any given year. The statistics may also fluctuate with the Township undertaking enforcement of the Animal Control By-law. Corporate Services Report No. CS2009-037 November 25, 2009 Page 3 of 4 Page 48 of 97 Agenda Item # 10d) - Report No. CS 2009-37, Doug Irwin, Director of Corporate Ser... For more than a decade, the Township has had a positive working relationship with the OSPCA. Township residents are familiar with the OSPCA's pound services, and know that should their animal should find its way to the pound, it will be cared for appropriately. ) va -9 Therefore, it is recommended that the Township award the Pound Keeping Services to the OSPCA - Orillia Branch, for a period of 18 months, at the annual fee of $18,000. < FINANCIAL: • $18,000.00 per year POLICIES/LEGISLATION: • Township's Animal Control By-law CONSULTATIONS: • Municipal Law Enforcement staff ATTACHMENTS: • None CONCLUSION: The recommendation contained in the report will ensure that the Township is continuing to work with an agency who has provided Pound Keeping services to the Township and our residents for more than a decade, and will minimize the clerical burden of operating the pound for both parties, while enabling both parties to have known costs associated with a Pound Keeping services agreement.

From: debroux Sent: Sunday, November 15, 2009 1:50 PM To: Hughes, Harry Subject: Policing Mayor Harry Hughes 148 Line 7 South Oro, ON LOL 2X0 Mr Mayor On the morning of the 12th of November, we had someone open the door to our house, while we were asleep, and take all of our keys. Fortunately our dog started to bark which chased the burglars away, however not before they stole my wife's wallet and both of our truck and house keys. Through our dealings with the local OPP officers, whom I must commend on their professionalism and diligence in this matter; it has come to light that there is no official detachment tasked to cover our wonderful township. As you may have heard our little town of Hawkestone is going through a bit of a rough period with the influence of certain individuals. The OPP do not have the necessary manpower dedicated to our township to be able to deal with this problem. The result of this is that petty crime and public disturbances are up. This not to mention that breaking into a home is a serious escalation in the level of violence, mostly if you consider that it was obvious we where home. As we have two young children we feel this to be a very disturbing and trend we hope to see reversed. Unfortunately this is impossible with the current level of OPP officers tasked with protecting our township from these nefarious influences. We used to be proud to say that we lived in an area that was so safe we felt at ease leaving our door open at night when home; today this is no longer the case. It is my hope that you will be able to put pressure where it is required to get the provincial politicians to act and address the lack of police officers tasked with patrolling our township. Based on the five police cruisers I saw within 1 hour involved in speed traps on highway 11 it is obvious the issue is more one of focus and priorities than staffing levels in the area. We that one day we will be able to feel safe in our township and village as we used to.
