Base Hospitals provide on-line and retrospective medical direction and

providing Advanced Life Support. Base Hospitals provide medical
direction without regard to patient destination, and therefore,
provide services for patients who may be transported to facilities
other than Mt. Diablo Medical Center. Currently, two Base Hospitals
serve the four County-designated Base Hospital Zones: John Muir
Medical Center serves Zone A (West County) and Zone B (South County) ;
and Mt. Diablo Medical Center serves Zone C (North County) and Zone D
(East County) .
