Today's bit of knowledge to share is regarding our EMS calls. We often hear bystanders ask "why is Bargersville responding to our call?" Good question! New Whiteland does not operate an ambulance from our station. It is cost prohibitive for our size budget. Instead we partner with our neighbors at Bargersville to provide Paramedic and ambulance service. They also serve the Whiteland area and to help keep response times to a minimum, they operate a medic out of Whiteland station 71 for both areas. While they are our primary provider, we also have agreements with the ambulance services operating from other surrounding departments so our residents will have a timely response for their medical needs even if BCFD is unavailable. All of our firefighters are required to obtain an EMT level certification. Many have higher certifications as well ensuring care is provided as quickly as possible.
Thank you to BCFD for our long standing partnership.
If you have an operational related question, send us a message and ask!
