In the event a SWAT Medic is involved in an officer involved shooting (OIS), or the use of deadly force during a SWAT operation, the SWAT Medic shall be treated the same by the CITY as would a full time sworn police officer. This would include legal representation by the CITY for actions in the course and scope of their assignment and offering of Peer Support services. This will also include representation by the GPOA, in conjunction with Local 1062 during any investigation related to the OIS or use of force. Close coordination between GPD, GFD, GPOA and Local 1062 will take place to meet the needs of the SWAT Medic in these situations. The City agrees to provide and pay for the same PORAC Legal Defense Insurance plan, provided to regular GPOA represented members, to SWAT Medics from Local 1062.
