RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPOINT Brian Goldhammer to the Emergency Medical Care Committee (EMCC) seat B4 – California Highway Patrol, as recommended by Dr. William Walker, with a term expiration date of September 30, 2018:

California Highway Patrol Authorized Representative: Brian Goldhammer, Martinez, CA 94553.

FISCAL IMPACT:

No fiscal impact.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this Board Order is not approved, this position on the EMCC will not be filled.

BACKGROUND:

The EMCC is a multidisciplinary committee appointed by the County Board of Supervisors, to provide advice and recommendations on EMS-related matters to the Board, Health Services Director and its EMS Agency. Membership consists of consumer representatives, and representatives of EMS-related organizations and groups.

In September 2016, the EMCC two-year membership began a new term. The former B4 seat was vacant due to the California Highway Patrol (CHP) declining to nominate a candidate based on staffing. CHP nominated Brian Goldhammer in July 2017.
