The squad will be featured in the October issue of the magazine and two members get to go to a convention in Orlando to receive the award (not me!!). There are all kinds of prizes for the squad as well. An OF COURSE THE OBLIGATORY PLAQUE What is really neat is that we are a VERY small all volunteer squad, we have 8 Ambulance Drivers, 2 Paramedics, 3 Critical Cares, and 3 Basic EMT's that provide 24/7/365 care to a 55 square mile rural area, we have about 300 calls a year. Our average response time is 5 minutes (because so many of us sleep at the station during our shift). In years past the award had been give to HUGE paid services, so it's really impressive to be chosen. I have only been a member for two years but from the very begining I have been majorly impressed by the skill and dedication of everyone here. They are an amazing group and I am so lucky to be working with them. You can BET I'll be posting a link to the article when it appears ( the magazine has a digital issue as well as print) |
