♥️ CPR SAVES LIVES!!!! ♥️

Teach them while they’re young and it’ll stick with them forever!!!

Yesterday we had the pleasure (as we’ve done for 4 or so years now) to have some of Hallettsville elementary stop by! We have 2 stations going for 2 different groups. One group learns hand only CPR and the other gets to see our ambulances and equipment. We then switch and bring in another bus. All together, we got to show almost 100 2nd graders how to do CPR and educate them on what exactly EMS does in their community!

We appreciate Halletsville ISD for thinking about us and we’ll be on to year 5 in no time!

Come learn! Bring your friends, family and neighbors! The more people who know how to perform early CPR in the community, the better survivability the patient has!

It's never too early to start thinking about EMS EVOLUTION 2026 this September 28-30 at the Texas A&M Hotel & Conference Center.

We're excited to announce our keynote speaker: John Moon.

John Moon began his EMS career in 1972 with Freedom House Ambulance, after seeing the impressive crews in action while working as an orderly in a local hospital. After completing the necessary training on his own, he was hired by Freedom House and changed the course of his life.

John retired as Assistant Chief of Pittsburgh EMS in 2009 after 34 years of service. He now dedicates much of his time in retirement to ensuring the history of Freedom House Ambulance is not forgotten. He travels the country speaking at Black history events and EMS conferences, as well as book signing tours with author Kevin Hazzard who featured Moon in his 2022 book American Sirens. He was an invited guest at President Biden’s State of the Union address in 2024.

🚁 DUAL SCENE FLIGHT ✈️

Tonight was a complicated scene. A 2 vehicle MVA with multiple patients. PHI Air Medical Cedar Creek and Washington county EMS Airmed 1 were called for transport. Very rarely do we have a dual air med call or landing zone.

Thanks to LCEMS, Shiner Police Department, Shiner VFD, Lavaca County Sheriff's Office, Yoakum Volunteer Fire Department, and Fayette County Emergency Medical Services, as well as TDEM & TxDPS….. we had a safe landing zone. Our partnerships are strong 💪!

Coordination with a risky dual rotor landing zone is paramount. It was accomplished with our continued training, our new public safety radio communications and mutual aid agreements.

We successfully transported 3 patients by ground and 2 by air.

Good job to all involved. It takes a village!
