The Halifax Area Ambulance and Rescue Association had over 650 events from January through September of 2008. During this time we transported 353 patients to area hospitals. The ambulance association is still accepting subscriptions for the fiscal year. If you did not get one in the mail, call the station and we will be glad to send you one.
This Fall the ambulance association is providing standby coverage at the local jv and varsity football games at the high school on Monday and Friday evenings and the midget football games on Sunday afternoons. At least one ambulance with a crew of two EMT's is at these events based on availability.
Our ambulances and personnel attended the annual Open House sponsored by the Halifax Fire Department on October 4th. One of our ambulances was on display along with some of our equipment that is used on ambulance calls.
Future events include the Halloween parade and Trick or Treat Night. Personnel plan to be in Halifax to hand out treats to the children in the community.
Con-ed Training for EMT's is scheduled for October 12th at 6:00PM on Scene Size Up and October 26th at 6:00PM on Focused Exam.
The Halifax Area Ambulance and Rescue Association had 580 events from January through August of 2008. During this time we transported over 320 patients to area hospitals. The ambulance association is still accepting subscriptions for the fiscal year. If you did not get one in the mail, call the station and we will be glad to send you one.
Before The Emergency
Make a copy of your address and directions to your residence and keep them near the phone. You may be surprised how many people can’t remember their address or directions during an emergency. Don’t forget to write down the emergency number 9-1-1.
Try to speak calmly and clearly when you call 9-1-1. This will help the dispatcher. They will need the nature of the emergency call, your name, and address including borough or township, and phone number. Listen to the dispatcher - they are trained to help you in an emergency. Please don’t hang up the phone until the dispatcher tells you to. Do not use 9-1-1 for non emergency calls. If you have children you are going to teach about calling 9-1-1, please instruct them that this is for emergencies only. False calls and hang-ups will prompt a response from the police. The dispatcher will know where the call is coming from but won’t know if it is a real emergency and will send the police.
The Halifax Area Ambulance and Rescue Association had 444 events the first six months of 2008. During this time, we transported 264 patients to area hospitals. There were 4 patient transfers to Life Lion and the rest of the Events were either patient refusals, canceled prior to our arrival or fire calls.
The Ambulance Association is currently in the middle of its annual Subscription drive for the fiscal year July 1, 2008 thru June 30, 2009. If you did not receive one in the mail, you may call our station at 896-3636, leave a message and we can have one mailed to you. We do not receive any fire tax and count on your support to keep the Ambulance Association running.
