Lorain County Ambulance Plan Fails To Discuss Details
The Lorain County ambulance citizens committee has two proposed solutions for service issues but member Norman Heldt says he cannot discuss them yet. He notes cost prevents county wide service and cites private firms losing money due to fee collection challenges. He mentions trouble in the Columbia Station area and the corridor between Elyria and Lorain and predicts tighter state ambulance regulations amid federal requirements. A centralized dispatch could help, he adds, while Lake Erie is forecast to reach record levels this spring with flooding risk. Dr. Frank Quinn notes mild January weather sped up runoff, potentially raising lake levels four to eight inches above last year by May according to a center forecast.
