Volunteer First Responders
First Responders are required to take a 48 hour training course and be registered with the state at a minimum before providing patient care. They are also required to take a refresher course once every two years to remain certified. Emergency Medical Technicians and Paramedics provide expertise that exceed these minimum requirements and are encouraged to participate. The group drills twice a month on the second and fourth Thursday of each month. After each drill, calls that had occurred since the last drill are discussed and critiqued for ways to improve our care. Many of the First Responders in outlying areas are supplied with an emergency response kit to provide care prior to the rescue squad arriving.
