Ambulance 3 & Other Apparatus

We serve the community 24/7. On occasions in which Ambulance 3 is committed to one emergency call and another emergency call is received, an available ambulance from a neighboring town's fire department is requested to respond to provide patient transport to a local hospital. Likewise, Ambulance 3 is occasionally requested to respond to out-of-town emergencies (reciprocal mutual aid).

Engine 3 and Engine 2 are also equipped with medical and rescue equipment, including an AED, and respond to medical / rescue related calls.
