🍂 Hunting Season is Here — Stay Safe Out There! 🎯

Did you know, TCAD responds to at least one, but sometimes several hunting related emergencies every year!!!

As hunters head into the woods, TCAD Paramedics are reminding everyone to make safety your top priority. A few simple steps can prevent serious injuries and keep your season enjoyable:

🟢 Know your target and what’s beyond it
🟢 Wear high-visibility orange — even if you’re “just walking through” or hiking
🟢 Practice safe firearm handling
🟢 Keep a charged phone and let someone know where you’ll be
🟢 Carry basic first-aid supplies

Our paramedics are always ready to respond — but we’d much rather see everyone return home safely at the end of the day.

Stay alert, hunt smart, and enjoy the outdoors! 🍁🚑
