Three Forks Area Ambulance had a very busy May, we responded to 23 calls!
Whiteline EMT course is coming to an end in mid-June. We are excited to add 3-4 EMTs from this class. All the students worked extremely hard and had hours of hands-on scenario training. This training covered medical and trauma situations with volunteer patients.
Three Forks Area Ambulance (TFAA) added 6 new EMTs between April and May. TFAA also added 3 new ambulance drivers in May.
The first weekend in May, TFAA hosted a Prehospital Trauma Life Support class for EMTs, AEMTs, paramedics, and nurses throughout the state. This was a two-day event with the Simulation Montana trailer. TFAA now has 3 EMTs that are certified in Prehospital Trauma.
In addition to the Prehospital Trauma training, TFAA hosted Life Flight helicopter training in Stevenson Park. TFAA now has 5 EMTs and all the Whiteline EMT students are certified in hot and cold loads. This was great training as TFAA had 4 helicopter transports in the month of May.
We want to thank the community for all your continued support.
