			New EMS personnel plan approved By Alan Rusch Last Updated: November 25, 2009 At Monday's meeting of the Ellsworth County Commission, a new personnel plan for the Ellsworth County Emergency Medical Service was approved. Shelly Maze, EMS director, said technician Terri Stone will resign as of Dec. 10 to take a job as a nurse at the Ellsworth Correctional Facility. That leaves the department with two open positions. However, Maze said she will absorb the two positions by switching from a three-man shift to a two-man shift, which would save the county money. Maze plans to hire a full-time assistant director and a full-time billing person. “I think it sounds like a plan," Commissioner Terry Kueser said. “I hope it works," Commissioner Al Oller said. “I think it is a good plan."
