At Forest Hills Area EMS, we are committed to serving every member of our community with compassion, understanding, and respect. Autism Awareness Month is an opportunity to recognize and support individuals on the autism spectrum and their families.

As first responders, we understand that every interaction matters. We continue to educate and train our crews to better communicate, respond, and provide care in ways that meet the unique needs of those with autism.

A few ways we can all make a difference:
• Practice patience and understanding
• Be mindful of sensory sensitivities

Together, we can build a safer, more supportive environment for everyone.

Today, one of our crews spent the day at the Portage Senior Activity Center providing blood pressure screenings and general wellness checks. It was a great opportunity to connect with members of the community, offer preventative care, and answer health-related questions.

We’re proud to support the health and well-being of our residents and always appreciate the chance to get out and serve beyond emergency response.

Only a few tickets left for this great event.

We have received several boxes of smoke alarms from the American Red Cross. These are the ones with the 10-year batteries. If you live in our coverage area and need some for your house, call the station at 814-495-4222. Leave your name, address, and phone number. Someone will call you back and arrange a date/time we can install them for you.

We first did this project about 10 years ago, so if you got one then, it's about time to replace it.

Thank you to the Portage Senior Activity Center for having us yesterday.
We were able to check our friends blood pressures and pulses all while keeping both of our station staffed incase of emergency.
We’d like to also thank them for inviting us to stay to celebrate Valentine’s Day with them with pizza and snacks!!
We will back to Portage next month to check out their blood pressures again!!
