Anyone know what the new code 10-31 is..


it use to be for  colgged incinrator, but is used for something else,
 
10-31 Assist Civilian - All calls for assistance, other than medical assignments, including good intention calls, calls handled by other agencies, any type of investigation, searches and complaints, elevator emergencies, and lockouts.
 
New 10-codes:
10-27 - Compactor or Incinerator Fire, no extension from compactor/shaft
10-31 - Assist civilian - non-medical calls/incidents handled by other agencies
10-37 - Assist civilian - CFR/medical
- code 1 - victim deceased
- code 2 - victim not breathing or suffering from other serious life-threatening condition
- code 3 - victim is breathing, no immediate life threat
- code 4 - both EMS and FD units are 10-84, FD makes no patient contact but operates (i.e. using apparatus to block traffic)
10-45 - Assist civilian - Fire-related injury - to be transmitted instead of a 10-37 for all injuries as a result of fire.  A Battalion Chief should be notified and requested on a 10-45.

The codes were actually changed in March, they were just put on hold until they could be programmed into the computer.
