Washington County Ambulance Service

Comments

As the current owner of one of your department's former ambulance vehicles -- an impressive 1973 Miller-Meteor Cadillac Volunteer 48" which served there, or at least was retained and stored at the County Fairgrounds, I was told, until approximately 1989 -- I thought I would pass along and share a few images of what the vehicle looks like today...

Mission: It is the mission of Washington County Ambulance Service to provide the most professional and highly trained prehospital care to our county communities and the traveling public. It is our duty to increase public relations within Washington County as well as other local areas and State offices. We will encourage the initial and continuing medical education of the volunteer staff and stay abreast of the ever-changing scopes of practice for our EMTs. We will strive to promote and foster better prehospital intervention for patients and families and work on prehospital issues as they relate to our regional trauma advisory council. We take pride in our volunteer service and will continue to upgrade our ambulances, facilities and billing services to our patient base. We are dedicated to LEARN, LEARN, LEARN and to keep an OPEN MIND about CHANGE!

The Lonestar School had the opportunity to learn CPR/First Aid and run a "mock" call with the ambulance where they rendezvoused with the MedEvac chopper to transport their patient. Three lucky students won a ride in the helicopter!

Washington County Nursing Home

Update:
Just to clarify for some confusion I've been hearing. This is for Washington County residents. This is happening to the east of the nursing home-not in the nursing home or in the administrative building. This is a drive thru testing; people will not be exiting their vehicles. Hope this helps clarify things. Any questions please ask.

COVID-19 TESTING FOR WASHINGTON COUNTY RESIDENTS

When: June 25th and June 26th from 10:00 A.M. – 2:00 P.M.

Please help Washington County open more venues. It’s all about numbers – Washington County needs to perform more random testing of COVID-19 to prove to the Northeast Colorado Health Department that our low rate of residents with COVID-19 is in compliance with the variances that have been granted and for future variances. These variances will allow Washington County to have MORE people attend the Fair, attend entertainment venues, and open up businesses. Currently the County would like to test between 150 and 200 people. You do not need to be a town resident and you do not need to have symptoms.

Thank you East Morgan County Hospital for you thoughtful gift!

Big THANK YOU to WY Communications for sending us this fantastic treat for EMS Week! We appreciate your support, hard work and dedication!

It is with heavy hearts that we mourn the loss of one of our own. Our thoughts and prayers go out to her friends and family.

Tonight's regular training was on Emergency Obstetrics presented by EMT Intermediate Kelly Chenoweth. Collin gave a demonstration of delivery in the field, with the assistance of Garrett, who realized it's a lot harder to push that baby out then it looks! There was also training on anaphylactic emergencies presented by Paramedic Collin Patterson.

The most remote emergency room: Life and death in rural America

washingtonpost.com If anything defines the growing health gap between rural and urban America, it’s the rise of emergency telemedicine in the poorest, sickest, and most remote parts of the country, where the choice is increasingly to have a doctor on screen or no doctor at all. These physicians, often hundreds of mi...
