We wanted to thank our duty crew as well as C shift tonight for the response we have had to the winter storm.
Here are a few tips from our crew on staying safe!
-Make sure to bundle up if you go out and wear proper footwear for snow and ice
-Try to avoid going out in the weather
-As we all try to stay warm inside be safe with space heaters as they can be a fire hazard as well as they can cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Keep flammable items away from them and dont leave them unattended.
-Keep your furry friends inside they need to stay warm too.

So from our crew to the community stay safe in the winter storm! 🌨️

🍂 Fall Festival Fun🚑🎃

This weekend, your Vinton First Aid Crew was proud to provide medical standby for the annual Fall Festival right here in Vinton! Our crew members spent the day connecting with the community, offering hands-on demonstrations on wound packing and bleeding control, and standing by to ensure everyone had a safe and fun event.

Events like this remind us why we serve—community, connection, and care. ♥️

A big thank-you to In Vinton, all the organizers, vendors, and visitors who made the day a success. We’re already looking forward to next year! 🍁
