We are proud to announce the addition of portable ultrasound technology to our EMS division. Both of our ambulances are now equipped with handheld ultrasound devices to enhance prehospital patient assessment and care.

This initiative is currently in the pilot phase within the state, and we are sincerely grateful to the State Medical Director for the opportunity to participate in this progressive program. Being included in this initiative reflects our continued commitment to advancing the level of care we provide to our community.

Point-of-care ultrasound is a valuable tool for our paramedic providers. It allows for rapid bedside assessment in trauma patients to evaluate for internal bleeding and pneumothorax, assists in assessing cardiac activity during cardiac arrest to help confirm return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), and supports airway placement confirmation. The integration of this technology strengthens our ability to deliver timely, informed, and high-quality prehospital care.

We are honored to be part of advancing EMS medicine within our state and to continue elevating the standard of care for our community.
