When Should I Call 911?
An emergency is considered any immediate threat to life. Examples include, but are not limited to, shortness of breath, profuse bleeding, chest pain, overdoses, active childbirth, and more.
When you call 911, know your location and a callback number. Stay on the line with the dispatcher until the paramedics arrive, follow any directions given, and stay calm.
First Responders
Our goal is always to provide the best possible patient outcome. When seconds count, we want trained personnel on the scene as soon as possible.
We work with multiple agencies throughout the county that respond in-conjunction with an ALS ambulance to provide additional resources.
