Good afternoon, Lavaca County! With the upcoming construction at 90A & 77A, we felt it to be a good idea to share with you some information from TDEM.

Have a great rest of your Monday!

Thank you for the amazing ceremony in remembrance of 9/11. Moulton ISD - Home of the Katz and Kittens always has a ceremony that passes onto our children the importance of this day and the effects it had on our Great Nation.

We are honored to attend and honored to serve. ❤️

Today marks 24 years since America suffered a great loss to our nation.

May we never forget.

Where were you on that morning of 9/11/2001?

Yesterday, I had the distinct honor (with some of my rural colleagues) of attending the bill signing ceremony of HB 3000. This signing was done at the Hyatt Regency in Austin and was also during the TORCH (Texas Organization of Rural & Community Hospitals) conference.

HB 3000 was a bill that I testified on behalf of Lavaca / Colorado and ALL rural counties in the state and was signed into law yesterday by Governor Abbott. HB 3000 was born through the vision of Judge DeLoach (Lamb county and sponsored in part by Senator Perry and Rep. King) due to minimal funding for the replacement of ambulances in rural Texas. With this bill, counties from 10,000 citizens to 68,000 citizens will receive $350,000 and counties less than 10,000 citizens will receive $500,000 towards the purchase of an ambulance(s). During this last legislative session, I testified numerous times on this, and other bills, as to how this will benefit rural Texas and especially our hometown counties!

It was an honor to be in attendance and it was an honor to do this in front of some of our healthcare partners for Yoakum Community Hospital and Rice Medical Center & Associates!

This evening, LCEMS was dispatched to Mudbuddies for a trauma related call.

We appreciate the Lavaca County Sheriff's Office and their dispatchers for responding and coordinating our response as well as contacting PHI Air Medical Victoria for us. Upon arrival, we realized we had another patient involved and our partners from the Volunteer Fire Department / EMS for mutual aiding us as well at the Hallettville VFD!

When you’re in rural EMS, it takes us all working together to have great patient outcomes!
