On Thursday August 14, 2008 the Springboro Volunteer Fire Department will begin our Ambulance transport service. Springboro currently has fifteen Department of Health EMS personnel and on August 12th we received our DOH license for our Ambulance. Ambulance memberships are currently being accepted. If you have a membership to another department and would like to utilize our service, we will honor that membership for this year. This has been a two year journey to get where we are. In 2006 we held an EMT class in Springboro and gained six EMTs out of that class. In August of 2007 we began running mutual aid to Albion and the Albion Fire Department has been instrumental in getting our new EMTs the training that they need by working with them and allowing them to "crew" their ambulance. Our EMTs have responded to over 300 EMS calls with Albion and another 100 calls in our own area. With this new chapter comes an end to a relationship that has benefited our community greatly. Fellows Club Ambulance Service has transported our citizens in the past and we would like to thank them for their tireless work. We also would like to ask them for their support in our new venture. |
