MESA proudly celebrates that a patient has made a full recovery after experiencing a cardiac arrest save event!

In May, MESA was dispatched for chest pains, which was quickly upgraded to a cardiac arrest. After CPR, transport, being placed on ECMO, and a month-long hospital stay, the patient made a full recovery with no brain or nerve damage.

MESA recently hosted a ceremony to celebrate the patient and present the dispatched MESA providers with cardiac event save pins. Success stories like these are what drive our passion to serve our community.

On Aug 1st, MESA participated in the Pennsylvania State Police Statewide Sunny Day Camp at the Star Barn. It was our pleasure to participate in such an amazing event.

Lt. Minnucci said this “You made an impact on the Campers and their family’s lives. I had so much positive feedback from parents literally crying to me in gratitude. They felt loved, safe, and understood. That is rare for this community and even though it was just for one day, you still made a lasting impression. Thank you for being a part of our camp and helping to represent PSP, law enforcement, and emergency responders, very well. You helped make our agency shine brighter.”

Back to school month is here! Schools are going back in session, and school buses are back on the road. When sharing the road with a school bus, it’s not just the bus that you need to have your eyes on but the surrounding area too. To keep children safe, it’s important to remember these school bus safety laws:

🔹 Yellow flashing lights indicate the bus is preparing to stop to pick up or drop off children. Motorists should slow down and prepare to stop.
🔹 Motorists must stop at least 10 feet away from school buses that have their red lights flashing and stop arm activated.
🔹 Motorists must stop when they are behind a bus or approaching an intersection where a bus is stopped.
🔹Motorists following or traveling alongside a school bus must stop until the red lights have stopped flashing, the stop arm is withdrawn, and all children have reached safety.
🔹 Do not proceed until all the children have reached a place of safety.
🔹 NEVER attempt to pass a school bus.

Red means stop 🚦

National Stop on Red Week from August 2-8 is a national effort to bring awareness to the dangers of running red-lights and the importance of safe driving. Each year more than 1,000 lives are lost and over 100,000 injuries occur from running red lights.

Road safety is a shared responsibility and it’s important to always stop on red, not just during Stop on Red Week but every time you are behind the wheel.

Summer traffic is heating up ☀️🚗

Summer means road trips, construction projects, and more drivers sharing the roads. With increased traffic comes an increased risk of roadside emergencies.
When you see emergency responders, tow operators, construction crews, or disabled vehicles on the shoulder, remember: Slow Down. Move Over.

Giving roadside workers and first responders extra space isn't just the law—it's one of the simplest ways to help everyone get home safely.

This summer, protect those who protect and serve our communities. Slow down, move over, and stay alert.

Nothing beats a splash to cool off from the heat, but safety should make waves, too.

Whether it’s a pool, ocean, lake or stream, it’s important to take precautions and practice water safety especially with children. This World Drowning Prevention Day remember to practice active supervision. Because the best summer memories are the safe ones.

🔹 Always watch kids and teens when they are in or around water, even if they know how to swim.
🔹 Swim with others and make sure young children and weak swimmers are within arms reach of an adult.
🔹 Set water safety rules.
🔹 Swim in areas with lifeguards.
🔹 Avoid distractions when watching children in or around water. Drowning is often silent and can occur in less than five minutes. It’s crucial to provide your full attention.
🔹 Do not rely on swimming aids like pool noodles or inner tubes. These items are recreational and should not replace an approved life jacket.
