Our paramedics are trained and equipped to provide advanced, life-saving care wherever it’s needed, 24/7/365. Our medics arrive on scene within minutes of a initial 911. In critical situations, when seconds can mean the difference between life and death, the placement of paramedics at your neighborhood fire station is paramount to rapid care.
