It looks like a Hallmark holiday movie!

Did someone say "Hallmark Movie"? ๐ŸŽฌ

Lititz at night just got a whole lot more dreamy! The new string lighting is officially strung across Sturgis Lane (the alley between Main Men & Main Men Ladies and Slate Cafe).

Head over tonight and take a serene stroll! We promise you'll feel like you've walked onto the set of a holiday film.

When you stop by, please show some love to the local businesses and partners who helped fund this beautiful upgrade:
Heavenly Soaps & Scents
Main Men & Main Men Ladies
Slate Cafe
apPIERances
Min D's Boutique
Irish Eyes Tea Co.

Thank you to Lititz Improvement for co-funding the project.

Thank you to Stray Production Services for their expert installation.

The Pennsylvania State Medical Advisory Committee signed off on a three-year pilot program that lets Warwick EMS bring hospital-level sepsis care straight to the patientโ€™s bedside at home. We are the first and only EMS agency in Pennsylvania with this capability.

Hereโ€™s why it matters. Sepsis moves fast, and every minute counts. The sooner a patient receives antibiotics, the better their chances. As part of this program, our crews will draw blood cultures and other lab work on scene and administer Cefepime to patients who meet sepsis criteria. It closes the gap between just recognizing sepsis and actually starting care prehospital.

This program depends on a solid partnership with our local hospital. Their lab and emergency physicians provide tight oversight and ongoing quality review for every patient we treat. Our paramedics complete extensive training in identifying sepsis early, drawing accurate blood cultures, and safely administering this antibiotic while managing patients who are often critically ill.

This pilot fits our community. We see a high number of septic patients in this region, and our strong partnership with UPMC Lititz makes this the right place to introduce and trial this treatment.

We are awaiting final approval from the Pennsylvania Bureau of EMS and expect to have this new protocol in the field by December. Advanced prehospital medicine is happening right here in our hometown. Warwick EMS is proud to lead this effort for our community and help move EMS forward in the Commonwealth.

Today, we pause to honor all who have served. Veterans Day, observed each year on November 11, began as Armistice Day to mark the end of World War I in 1918 and was renamed in 1954 to recognize veterans of all wars.

At Warwick Community Ambulance, we not only salute the veterans within our own team but also every member of our community who has worn the uniform. Your courage, dedication, and sacrifice continue to inspire us every day. Thank you for your service.

This would be a welcome change for EMS. https://www.collins.senate.gov/newsroom/senators-collins-welch-introduce-bipartisan-bill-to-expand-treat-in-place-emergency-medical-services.

The CARE Act would be a major step forward for EMS because it finally recognizes that patient care doesnโ€™t always require transport to a hospital. By allowing Medicare reimbursement for treatment provided on scene, this bill gives EMS agencies the ability to deliver the right care at the right place without being penalized financially. It strengthens system efficiency, reduces unnecessary emergency department visits, and helps sustain EMS operations, especially in rural and community-based systems, like Warwick, by aligning reimbursement with the reality of modern prehospital medicine.

Our EMT students worked through hands-on scenarios today, combining patient care with movement and teamwork. Scenario-based training gives students the chance to learn by doing in a safe environment where itโ€™s okay to make mistakes and grow.

If youโ€™re interested in joining the next class, we have both EMR (Emergency Medical Responder) and Advanced EMT courses starting this winter.

October kept Warwick Community Ambulance on the move, with crews responding to 484 dispatched incidents across our region. Most calls came from Lititz Borough, Warwick Township, and Manheim Township, with our top call types including sick person, fall/injury, unconscious person, breathing problems, and chest pain. Our team transported 231 patients to hospitals across the region, with the most frequent destinations being LGH Penn Medicine, UPMC Lititz, and WellSpan Ephrata.

Please note that there were periods when CAD records were unavailable due to a county-level system outage. These numbers reflect the data that was available during that period.

Outreach and Pediatric Specialist Colleen Bruckno and her team were busy, too! October was an extremely active month for outreach events and classes. They conducted 11 car seat checks and certified 23 people in CPR. The team also participated in several Halloween events, handing out candy at various trunk-or-treats across the area!

Itโ€™s our privilege to serve you. Thank you to our entire team for their continued dedication and professionalism in caring for our community.
