As the snow falls, we would like to introduce our new E.M.S. Supervisor vehicle, primarily operated by our Chief (43-50). This 4x4 capable pickup truck, outfitted for emergency response, replaces our former S.U.V. The repair costs of which were becoming overwhelming. The selection and outfitting of this vehicle was not only thrifty, but took our response area into account as well. We encounter patients amongst rising tides, coastal storms, and on the beach. No longer will we be strictly reliant upon our partners in getting equipment onto the beach and patients off of the beach. We thank our borough council, community supporters, and fundraising members for enabling this purchase.
Additionally, our new E.M.T.’s have proven to not only be committed, but driven. Before the wheels turned, both ambulances were cleaned. Since Friday, three members have been working on completing their driver training and, or sharpening their skills. This evenings adverse weather conditions created an excellent training environment. 1️⃣2️⃣6️⃣ days separate us from Memorial Day. We’re waiting on you.
