It's already known that the Delran Emergency Squad was in trouble.

The squad's former chief - a retired police chief - was arrested last month and faces several charges including terroristic threats. Authorities say he threatened state staffers and lied about fudging paperwork.

The squad was suspended and is now staffed by EMTs from other squads in Burlington County, the prosecutor's office has said.

But now, another scolding letter from the state Department of Health, recently posted on its website offers more detail about blunders in the squad's emergency services training.

The June 28 letter from Scot Phelps, the state's paramedic director, alleges that everyone who took a training "refresher course" at Delran received a 100 percent score on the final exam.

He said Denise Horner, who headed the training course, "went over the exam and ensured students were given the right answer...thus compromising the exam process and falsifying an examination score."

The state found a number of other deficiencies.

For example, Phelps also wrote that the test was from 1995 and therefore outdated.

Student files also lacked documentation, he said.

He concluded the letter with a 16-step plan to correct the flaws the audit found.
