[TheList] Pager Message MIN

No, not all HAZ have a 18 included in the turnout. 

Depends on local practice as to what is in the PDA for these. 

HAZGAS may not for example.

Andy's pretty close as I understand it. NAT used to be a single code but they broke them up in order to be able to report on incident 'scale' and help with prioritisation.

MIN generically means a smaller job from a FENZ perspective - like, single vehicle dispatch as typical - it does not mean that the job is 'minor' in terms of the severity to any victim, just that it sets off a PDA (pre determined attendance) that requires only a minimal resource.  Jobs received from other agencies can and are recoded by Firecom based on information received, MIN is where they all start.

PDAs change based on the incident type - for example HAZ will have a HAZMAT unit where STRU will not.

Way off on the guess again lol

So a NAT1 is more severe  than a NAT2 job? Like Ambo have RED ORANGE GREEN for severity of the job

Awesome, thanks for that.

There is one more id like to ask about - NAT1 and NAT2 - they usually pop up when big storms roll thru and the jobs are things like flooding or roof insecure/ripped off etc. Is NAT taken to mean national and 1 and 2 the severity of the job?

When incidents are transferred from the the police or ambulance CAD Systems into the fire system the are initially coded as MIN as a generic code. If necessary they can be recoded to a specific fire event type but since there is no Fire  code for suicide it remains as MIN.

Wow, and there I was thinking it was possibly an acronym...

How is it that a suicide attempt is minor though? Because there is no big fire involved?
