How to become a EMS member:
It is fun, easy, and beneficial to become a Rescue Squad member! Our
members range from 16 year old Cadets to 80 year old life members, and
nearly every age in-between.
If you are age 16 or 17, then you can join our Cadet program. Cadets
usually ride as "extra" members of a crew, gaining valuable
experience in first aid, patient care, and interpersonal relations. As with
all of our member types, we require the Cadet to be CPR certified
(Professional), and EMT (Emergency Medical Technician) certified. We
require our Cadets to ride a minimum of 20 hours per month in addition to
keeping a "C" grade average or higher in school (report cards
must be submitted each marking period).
If you are age 18 or over, then you can ride as a Regular member. This
carries the same certification requirements as the Cadet (CPR and First Aid
or EMT). However, Regular Members must ride 5 crews per month. A
driver only membership is available to members of the community with
experience driving emergency vehicles. An auxiliary member does not
ride on emergencies, but assists with fundraising.
We
will provide all training if a prospective member doesn't already have the
necessary certifications. Basic uniforms (coveralls) are also provided free
of charge.
