Knowing what to do and being at the right place at the right time saved a life of a patient. Elisabeth Clark, a home health nurse, was recently recognized as the Northern Light Home Care and Hospice Heart of the Mission Awardee for July 2025.

During a home visit, a patient had a life-threatening medical event. Elisabeth’s fast response and knowledge saved the patient’s life.

Thank you, Elisabeth, for your unwavering dedication to our patients – congratulations!

This weekend, 4 of our providers were lucky enough to take Tactical Emergency Casualty Care at Loring Air Force Base put on by NAEMT. This course elevated tactical skills that we already have and amplified it a little more. Through two days, our providers covered multiple hands on scenarios using real world buildings, patients and experiences.

We want to thank Darren Woods at Aroostook EMA for securing funding for 2 of our providers to attend this training. We are so grateful!

On May 15, Houlton Ambulance Service members attended a Basic Life Support in Obstetrics (BLSO) class in Houlton hosted by Northern Light Eastern Maine Medical Center. Our providers had the chance to run through real world scenarios and examples that we may see in the field. Instructors for the class ranged from OB nurses to OB Physicians! This was an excellent class that helped us brush up on our skills to be prepared for any call we may see.
