More and more, our crews are being called out for multiple transfers at a time. We transfer patients from Perham Health to bigger hospitals nearly everyday, traveling to hospitals in Fargo, St. Cloud, Duluth, the Cities, and even Rochester. These transfers are vital to getting patients to the care they need.

When more than one transfer needs to go at the same time, our crews start making calls. We operate with two crews on at a time. Being community-run and community-minded, we need to keep an ambulance in town. So we call off-duty personnel to come in and cover the town so the transfers can go in a timely manner. Most of the time, we are able to find staff willing to come in during their off-time to keep things running smoothly!

It’s a testament to a team that never hesitates to step up—answering the call not just because it’s their job, but because this community is their home and its people are their priority.

We had the best visit this week from some awesome local families! 🚑

It’s always a privilege to open up the ambulance doors, show off the equipment, and answer great questions about how EMS works in our community. From lights and sirens to cardiac monitors and stretchers— today’s visitors could be tomorrow’s EMTs or paramedics!

Thank you to Perham Fire Department and Perham Police Department for joining us!
