Busy Weekend for Our Crews

Since Saturday morning, we’ve responded to over 80 calls for service.

Our crews have:
🩸• Administered blood products to a critical trauma patient
🔥• Responded to multiple structure fires
🚁• Handled several serious motor vehicle accidents, some requiring air medical transport

📸 Pictured: An incident from early this morning on I-79, where a vehicle went over a hillside following a crash. The patient was stabilized on scene and transferred to STAT MedEvac (STAT 1) for rapid transport to a trauma center.

Thank you to our weekend crews. We couldn’t do it without you!!

🚑 Just-In-Time Training: 🔧

This month, our Just-In-Time Training focused on emergencies, with special emphasis on ring removal techniques and other scenarios.

Over the past week, our Assistant Chief of Special Operations visited every station to provide hands-on training to our staff. We also invited many of the fire departments we work with every day.

These skills may seem small, but in the right moment, they make a huge difference.

Thank you to everyone who participated and to the departments for training with us.

On Tuesday, we had a great time visiting Bentworth High School during Heart Month to teach Hands-Only CPR! 🫀❤️

Huge thanks to Mrs. Morrell for inviting us into her classroom and giving her students the opportunity to learn an important, life-saving skill. About 30 students took part in the training and did an awesome job getting hands-on practice.

We love seeing young people step up to learn how they can make a difference in an emergency!

🚑 Dispatcher → Street Experience! 🚑

On Friday, two of our dispatchers got the opportunity to cross-train and do a ride-along on the ambulance.

Getting dispatchers out in the field builds stronger teamwork, better understanding of operations, and ultimately better patient care. There’s nothing like seeing firsthand what happens after the tones drop!

Huge shoutout to our EMS crews for welcoming them and making it a great learning experience!

Now the real question…
👉 Who else is ready to come do ride-alongs and see what we’re all about? 👀🔥

Send us a message if you’re interested!

Last evening, our service joined with several local fire departments to do something special for one of our own. We had the opportunity to visit Jim as he continues recovering from major surgery at home.

Jim has been a steady and familiar voice in our dispatch center, and he’s been greatly missed over the past few months. With the help of one of our dispatchers and Jim’s family, we planned a surprise parade to lift his spirits and remind him how much he means to all of us.

Jim, we miss you and wish you continued healing. We can’t wait to see you back at the console in just a few short weeks!
