Put-In-Bay EMS

Put-in-Bay Township Emergency Medical Services has been a leader in Advanced Life Support since 1977 We have three ambulances and one quick response unit.

Put-in-Bay Emergency Medical Services has been a leader in Advanced Life Support since 1977. Put-in-Bay Township has partnered with Mercy Health Services to provide EMS services to Put-in-Bay and eight other Erie islands. We are staffed year round and are equipped with the most modern Advanced Life Support equipment and medications. During the busy summer months, our part time staff travel from around the state to provide coverage to PIB on a daily basis, and Middle Bass Island on weekends. In the off season, services are provided by a full time paramedic and volunteer EMT staff consisting of island residents. Our team averages 450 calls per year. Calls to other islands and water rescues are handled in conjunction with the Put-in-Bay Village Harbor Patrol and Put-in-Bay Volunteer Fire Department. Put-in-Bay EMS has an on-site, fully equipped training center and offers CPR training to the general public. We house two patient care rooms to provide ongoing care in case of inclement weather. We also provide several community services such as weekly blood pressure checks and lab draws for those needing bloodwork. Darrell Long, Manager

🚑 EMR vs EMT: The Assessment Showdown
Tonight, the clipboards changed hands.
Over the past few months, our EMTs dedicated their time helping our EMR students through labs and hands-on training. They showed up, they coached, they mentored.
Last night, the EMRs returned the favor — proctoring live patient assessment scenarios while the EMTs stepped into the hot seat.
No hints. No rescue. Just real critical thinking under pressure.
And they absolutely killed it — which is exactly why their awards had names like:
🩺 Clinical Assassin
🩸 Hemorrhage Hitman
🚑 Scene Slayer
💨 Airway Executioner
⚡ Shock Sniper
Proud of this crew and the culture we’re building!
Back L to R: Andy Burns, Nate Jones, Ashley Mann, Lucas Guy, Ben Jones, Noah Kneisley.
Front L to R: Megan Beck, Bree Reynolds

Last night’s trauma training brought the realism — and the teamwork.
Our EMTs and EMRs responded to a simulated officer-involved shooting and motor vehicle crash. A huge thank you to PIB PD officers Gary Allred and Jason Simon for being our "patients." Your participation made this invaluable for our staff! We also want to thank our new Police Chief, Mike Dillon for supporting collaboration between our departments. Partnerships like this strengthen the entire community!
Bree Reynolds , Nate Jones, Anne Auger, Andy Burns, Ashley Marie Mann, Noah Kneisley, John Domer and Greg Auger...you were rock stars!

Congratulations to our EMR class!
After 60 hours of classroom and lab time, they successfully passed their final exam and skills testing with flying colors. These students mastered critical skills including airway management, bleeding control, shock management, CPR, splinting, patient assessment, and childbirth. Their dedication—both in class and on their own time—truly showed. We couldn’t be more proud of this group!
🚑 A graduation ceremony will be held in the spring...stay tuned! 🚑

Sooo… funny story.
We messed up the Shopify settings and the Black Friday calendar deals didn’t load right.
If you tried to get the deal and couldn’t — or if you paid full price because our website said "nope" — message us.
We’ll fix it! Promise we’re better at EMS than we are at website settings!

Yesterday was a bittersweet day as our amazing EMT Tom Coury worked his last shift with Put-in-Bay EMS. Tom has been part of our EMS family for four years, and this year we proudly named him our Employee of the Year!

Even at his young age, Tom has already done it all — he’s a pilot of both airplanes and helicopters, a stock car racer, a college graduate and even finds time to dabble in contracting. His drive, talent, and heart for helping others inspire everyone around him.

Now he’s taking on his biggest adventure yet — joining the United States Air Force to chase his dream of becoming a fighter pilot.

We’re so sad to see him go, but we couldn’t be more proud. Thank you, Tom, for your service, your friendship and all the memories. Your future is as bright and boundless as the skies you'll soon call home and we’ll be cheering you on every step of the way! 💚✈️
