🚑 Happy EMS Week!

Reading Emergency Unit is proud to recognize our EMTs, AEMTs, Paramedics, and support staff for their dedication, compassion, and service to our community.

Thank you to all EMS providers for answering the call every day! 💙

Reading Emergency Unit would like to thank the Hillsdale County Community Foundation and the V.C. and Velma Knight Memorial Fund for their generous grant support!

Because of this funding, REU was able to purchase new medical response bags and IV kits for our ambulances serving Hillsdale County. These bags carry critical life-saving equipment used by our EMS crews during emergency calls every day.

The new equipment helps our responders access supplies faster and provide more efficient care to patients.

We are incredibly grateful for the continued support of organizations that help strengthen emergency medical services and improve the health and safety of our community.
