Safety Day

Today, during National EMS Week, we recognize Safety Day, a reminder that safety is at the core of everything our EMS providers do. Whether responding to medical emergencies, motor vehicle accidents, fires, or critical calls, our volunteer EMS personnel put safety first to protect not only themselves, but also the patients and community they serve.

We also encourage everyone to do their part:
✅ Move over for emergency vehicles
✅ Wear your seatbelt
✅ Keep emergency access clear
✅ Be prepared for emergencies at home

Please join us in thanking our EMS providers for their commitment to keeping our community safe!
