Hillsboro Area Ambulance Service would like to extend our sincere appreciation to Hillsboro Health for inviting our crews to attend an outstanding Pediatric Trauma education class presented by the team from SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital.

Opportunities like this allow our providers to continue strengthening their knowledge and skills when caring for our youngest and most vulnerable patients. Ongoing education is a vital part of ensuring we provide the highest level of care to the communities we serve.

🚑 Hands-On EMT Training Night! 🚑

Tonight our EMT students got some great hands-on experience practicing patient moving using a variety of equipment and methods. One of the highlights was stair chair training, where students were able to work through realistic scenarios and build confidence in safe patient movement.

A big thank you to Calvary Baptist Church for opening their doors to us, and especially Pastor Mike Plummer for allowing us to use their building for this training. Community support like this helps us prepare the next generation of EMS providers to better serve our area!s

📚🚑 Continuing Education Night at Hillsboro Area Ambulance 🚑📚

Tonight, Paramedic and Lead Instructor Alex led a continuing education class reviewing the system medications we carry on our ambulances. This refresher course was designed for all levels of providers — EMR, EMT, and Paramedic — to ensure everyone stays knowledgeable and prepared in the field.

Thank you, Alex, for taking the time to provide a great refresher and for your continued dedication to education and excellence within our service. We appreciate all that you do!

Merry Christmas from the team at Hillsboro Area Ambulance!

This afternoon, Hillsboro Area Ambulance Service was dispatched to three calls in a short period of time — one of them being a mass-casualty incident.

We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to Litchfield Fire Department Ambulance for their mutual aid response and support.

Thanks to the dedication of our team, Hillsboro Ambulance was able to staff and send three ambulances to three separate emergencies, and a fourth crew came into the station to staff an additional rig to ensure our service area remained fully covered.

We are incredibly proud of the teamwork displayed today. Thank you to every responder, dispatcher, and supporting agency involved for stepping up when our community needed it most.

Wishing you a happy Thanksgiving!
