Rural first responders are made up of more than just first responders we have EMTs Nurses and paramedics. Yeah those twenty minutes for the ambulance to get there may seem like a lot but at least on my VFD first responders are there within five to seven minutes of us receiving the page meaning the patient gets medical treatment just about as fast as in the city.

I am proud of the people I work with and the location I work at however I am not as proud of who I work for.

These patients need to be transported by ambulance but at the same time EMT safety is most important that's why our service will only transport these patients if an officer rides with us in the back of the rig.
