🚑 National EMS Week continues — and we want to recognize the emergency medical responders who serve Lander County.

Whether responding to highway accidents, medical emergencies, community events or rural calls across long distances, EMS personnel play an important role in protecting our communities.

In rural Nevada, emergency response often requires teamwork, quick decision-making and a strong commitment to neighbors and community.

Thank you to the EMTs, paramedics, volunteers and emergency response professionals who serve Battle Mountain, Austin, Kingston and surrounding areas. We appreciate your dedication and service.

💬 Help us celebrate EMS Week: Leave a thank-you message or share a story about an EMS responder who made a difference for your family.
