When 911 Becomes the Nursing Home’s Backup Plan: Why Lift-Assist Fees Are Necessary and Long Overdue - https://ow.ly/SVUB50ZAaIy

Cincinnati’s Proposal Should Be a National Movement
Cincinnati didn’t create a controversy. They addressed one.

EMS is not a contingency plan, a staffing band-aid, free labor, a replacement for proper staff training, or a mechanical lift substitute.

EMS is a medical emergency system, not a corporate safety net.

Cincinnati has finally recognized that truth, and our county recognized it years ago. It is past time for EMS systems nationwide to follow.

When long-term care facilities rely on 911 for simple lifts, it indicates that the system is broken, but not on the EMS side.

Lift-assist fees restore the boundaries that should have existed all along. They protect EMS readiness, prevent avoidable injuries, force facilities to follow federal guidelines, and keep ambulances available for actual emergencies.

This isn’t punishment. This is a correction. This is safety. This is necessary.

Cincinnati is making the right call. They weren’t the first, and they won’t be the last.
