An Act amending Title 35 (Health and Safety) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in emergency medical services system, further providing for injured police animals.
This bill requires Pennsylvania emergency medical services (EMS) communication centers to maintain and share information about veterinary clinics, hospital emergency departments, and other facilities equipped to care for injured police animals. It directly affects EMS dispatch centers and healthcare facilities by mandating they compile and retain specific details to expedite transport and treatment when police animals are injured. The key provision creates a standardized system for EMS centers to quickly access appropriate care resources for police animals during emergencies. The bill is procedural, focusing on information sharing rather than altering medical care standards, and takes effect 60 days after enactment.
