Fire Dept Code D Response

[muhockey86]

Anyone know what is meant by law enforcement asking for a code d response from the fire dept and medics?

What area are you talking about?

Jefferson County, later I heard 7017 inquire as to whether 7037 was still at the scene, my guess is meth lab.

Ya man, I've never heard that before. No idea.

Perhaps D as in death?

Watch the news close in the next few days to see if there was any sort of body discovered or someone died.

I've heard several dispatches by Central County 911 when a person has died, but they normally just put it out in the dispatch as "obvious death" or "suspicious death law enforcement on scene/en route".

I'm just curious, but does Jeffco advise units to "respond on the quiet"? We get that alot in saint charles county. I was just curious, perhaps code D could mean "get there with the utmost quickness" or "take your time, no lights or sirens required".

Just a thought, hopefully someone in that area can figure it out.

Delta response? google for "Medical Priority Dispatch System".

"J4" is the common metro St. Louis term for "fatality."

Ya its something that required the ambulance to wait around while something was going down....thats why i thought it was a lab bust

Maybe it means that the unit(s) should stage near the scene until it is secured/safe.
