MINDENHALL, CPPO, MANAGER OF PURCHASING SERVICES Halton Region - Committed To Providing Quality Care Now and In The Future Thanks to a three year plan that focused on recruitment of paramedics and expansion of service, we have improved ambulance response times by almost a minute since we assumed responsibility for Emergency Medical Services (EMS) in August of 2000. A minute can, in some cases, make a significant difference in a patient's chance of survival. Now it is time to look to the future and the demands that will be placed on Halton Region and our ability to continue providing exceptional emergency medical services. We are currently formulating a ten-year Master Plan that will address coverage issues throughout the Region as they relate to population, age and road volume.
