Maintenance, Training, and Facilities<\/p>\n
Begin thinking about the maintenance, training, and facilities costs within an emergency medical services (EMS)<\/p>\n
organization. In preparation for the comprehensive budget, you will prepare a snapshot of maintenance, facilities, and<\/p>\n
training needs. Use the Excel spreadsheet template provided in Unit III, and add to the next three sections: Maintenance,<\/p>\n
Training, and Facilities.<\/p>\n
Part I:<\/p>\n
The first part of this assignment involves maintenance costs. The purpose of this part of the assignment is to allow you to<\/p>\n
examine common expenses that are associated with the maintenance and repairs of equipment within an EMS<\/p>\n
organization. List at least ten maintenance items along with the cost(s) of the maintenance items. The maintenance items<\/p>\n
can be anything that your organization would have to purchase, including parts, labor, services, merchandise.<\/p>\n
For example, one maintenance item might be changing the oil in the organization\u2019s vehicles. On a budget sheet, the costs of<\/p>\n
oil changes would look like the following example:<\/p>\n
Description Quantity Cost Total<\/p>\n
Oil Change every 3,000 miles 40 (4 oil changes per year for 10 vehicles) $29.50 $1180.00<\/p>\n
Part II:<\/p>\n
The second part of this assignment involves training costs. The purpose of this part of the assignment is to allow you to<\/p>\n
examine the training needs and associated costs for an EMS organization. List at least three training events and the costs<\/p>\n
of those training events. The training events can be anything that will contribute to the performance of the staff, including<\/p>\n
certifications, continuing education, and conferences. Also, remember to list the associated costs of a training event such<\/p>\n
as lodging, meals, and travel expenses. For example, the costs of EMT training might be included in a budget. On a budget<\/p>\n
sheet, the EMT training costs may look like the following example:<\/p>\n
Description Quantity Cost Total<\/p>\n
EMT Training<\/p>\n
a. Tuition 3 $1,200 $3,600<\/p>\n
b. Textbooks 3 $150 $450<\/p>\n
c. Gasoline (travel) 150 miles ~ $3.52 per gallon ~ $528<\/p>\n
Total EMT Training Costs: 3 staff members $1,526 per staff member $4578<\/p>\n
In this case, the training costs are calculated for three staff members. First, the constituent costs are calculated for the<\/p>\n
training event. Then, within the totals row, the total costs are determined per staff member attending the training event. This<\/p>\n
particular example assumes that all three staff members will be carpooling within the same vehicle.<\/p>\n
Part III:<\/p>\n
The third part of this assignment involves facilities costs. The purpose of this portion of the assignment is to allow you to<\/p>\n
examine the costs associated with any and all of the facilities used for an EMS organization. Begin by inserting at least ten<\/p>\n
costs associated with utilizing facilities for the EMS organization. Remember, facilities costs can be any type of cost<\/p>\n
associated with an office-building, garage, or another type of building used to store equipment, and can include<\/p>\n
environmental fees, landscaping costs as well as the standard fees such as upkeep and maintenance. Here is an example<\/p>\n
of a cost associated with a facility:<\/p>\n
Description Quantity Cost Total<\/p>\n
Commercial property painter (Contract) 1 $9,430.00 $9,430.00<\/p>\n
Research the relevant costs that you would like to include in your budget by using the Internet or the CSU Online Library.<\/p>\n
Remember to include and cite all references using APA style.<\/p>\n
