From lifesaving emergency care to comforting patients and families during difficult moments, our EMS professionals make a difference every single day. Their commitment goes far beyond the ambulance—it’s about protecting and caring for our neighbors when they need it most.

Please join us in thanking our EMS personnel for their hard work, sacrifice, and unwavering dedication to the people of Torrington and Goshen County. 💙

🚑💛 It’s officially “We Couldn’t Do This Without Dispatch” Week… okay fine, that’s not a real holiday, but it SHOULD be.

Behind every siren, every call, and every “uhhh where exactly are we going?” moment, there’s a calm, collected voice on the other end making sure we actually get where we need to be (and occasionally reminding us which turn to take to get there).

To our incredible dispatchers:
Thank you for answering the calls no one else wants to make, juggling chaos like pros, and somehow understanding us even when we’re talking through static, sirens, and questionable radio etiquette.

You’re the real MVPs behind the scenes—and yes, we promise to say “clear and available” louder next time 😉

We wanted to take a moment to celebrate a recent example of the amazing teamwork our First Responders regularly display in keeping our community safe.

Last week, our Communications Center received a 911 call reporting an unresponsive person at a local residence, who was not breathing.

Communications Supervisor Bailye Goulart quickly dispatched the on-duty TPD Officers and Torrington EMS.

Sergeant Kevin Polson and Officer Nick Jenkins arrived at the scene approximately 90 seconds later and located the person.

The officers recognized that the person was likely suffering from a drug overdose, and Officer Jenkins quickly administered two doses of Narcan, which was provided to our agency by Goshen County Public Health, Goshen County WY

Approximately one minute later, Torrington EMS arrived on scene. EMS Director Darin Yates and EMS Shift Supervisor Jeff Morris continued providing treatment until the person was no longer in danger.

Working together is the only way we can save lives and provide great service to our community.

We are grateful for the efforts of these awesome First Responders who make a difference in what they do every day!

Last night, members of Torrington EMS attended an event at Saint Joseph's Children's Home. During this time, local first responders got to tour the facility and enjoy a meal together.
