And fire Response Time improved after the major changes made this year . Im chris papst. Coming up w more trouble for beleaguered d. C. Fire department. The 7 on your side iteam investigation revealed the Response Times to emergencies are still lagging. Even after mayor bowser made big changes in march. Watchdog investigator chris papst dug into the numbers. Chris for the last eight years life for david hooks has been a trouble. In 2007 he was hit by a drunk driver and paralyzed. My life changed dramatically. Chris now he relies on his family and fulltime aide and on emergency services. Last month he needed he in the middle of a heat wave the 45yearolds body seized up. I thought i was going to die. Chris phone record indicates he first dialed 911 at 8 15. Again at 8 25. 8 28. D. C. Fire e. M. S. Told the item it has no record of those calls. Even though they lasted a combined 12 minutes. An ambulance dill arrive at 8 37, 22 minutes after his first cry for help. This with a fire station three blocks away. They should have figured out something is wrong. Chris slow Response Times made headlines. In march two stabbing victims and young boy choking on a grape had extended wait. The boy later died. Do you feel Public Safety is jeopardized . I do. D. C. Fire contributed to the loss of some of the lives. Kenneth, a 29yearold e. M. T. In d. C. Says the problem that 85 of calls are more e. M. S. But most crews are staffed by firefighters trained as e. M. T. s who work 24hour shifts opposed to just e. M. T. s who work 12. I think you are look at fatigue. In march, mayor Muriel Bowser added ten ambulances and upgraded the computer systems. Three months later the iteam wanted to know if it worked. This bar represents total late responses in the First Quarter of 2015. This bar represents the second quarter. After the changes. A slight decrease. But nearly double from just one year earlier. I think it is time for a change of philosophy. Do you agree with that . I would say it differently. Chris the new fire chief took over in march the third chief in two years. Dean says the biggest problem leading to the delayed responses is equipment. There arent enough trucks. They are overused and cant be properly maintained. That leads to breakdown, crews out of position. A lack of proper training. He is looking at the options but a fix wont be quick. They are responsible for the fire chief. My job is to make sure it happened. The citizens will be the judge of how well we do. If somebody has to die, i dont want to be a part of that. Chris the chief went on to say the department is looking to buy more trucks and adjust staffing. It doesnt have a timeline to complete the improvements that he has planned. Want to see continued progress foremost being decrease in Response Time. Chris papst, abc7 news. Kimberly we know you will keep checking on it. Leon time now for a check of the traffic situation.
