We responded with an ambulance, our Special Operations Unit, two officers, and four additional volunteers. Our crews worked alongside surrounding agencies to support first responders on scene and ensure personnel had the resources needed during extended operations. Thank you to all agencies involved for the collaborative effort.

On Saturday, our Spring Hill West ambulance made a stop at the Montebello 5th Grade Car Wash fundraiser. Our crew had a great time meeting all of the students and supporting the event. The kids worked hard and did an amazing job making our bus shine. We always appreciate opportunities like this to connect with the community and encourage the next generation. Thank you to everyone who helped make the event such a success!

Earlier this morning Spring Hill EMS responded along side New Square EMS and Ramapo PD for a reported Motor Vehicle Accident on North Main Street in Hillcrest. 2 patients with minor injuries were treated on scene and transported to the hospital for further evaluation and treatment.

Last Wednesday night, Spring Hill EMS held an extrication drill simulating a rolled over school bus containing 20 patients. The training began with the Rockland County Sheriff’s Office setting up their Field Communications Unit and dispatching the call, followed by the Suffern Fire Department, Hillburn Fire Department, Spring Hill EMS, and New City EMS responding to the scene.

The fire departments then worked together with EMS crews to safely remove patients from the school bus. Patients were subsequently assessed, triaged, and treated by Spring Hill EMS and New City EMS before being transported to the appropriate hospitals.

Good Samaritan Hospital played a vital role in this drill and involved their trauma and emergency room teams in the exercise. Patients transported to Good Samaritan were registered, assigned rooms, and treated by ER providers as though they were real patients. Our crews had the opportunity to practice patient handoff reports and observe the ER staff in action.

This training was led by our Lieutenant of Training, Rebecca Finney, whose hard work and dedication helped make this complex exercise possible. We would also like to thank all of the role players who volunteered their time to help create a realistic training environment for everyone involved.

A sincere thank you to Arthur Ditzel from Good Samaritan Hospital for facilitating this drill, as well as all other parties involved. It was an invaluable experience, and we look forward to continuing to grow and train together.

Spring Hill EMS would like to thank everyone who came out to our EMS Experience Day. The event was a great success with a great turnout from the community. We are excited to share that multiple people applied to join our organization during the event, with additional applications submitted leading up to and after the event as well.

We would like to thank all of our members who dedicated their time and effort to make this event possible. Events like this would not happen without the hard work and commitment of our volunteers.

A special thank you to the Rockland County Sheriff’s Office for bringing their Field Communications Unit and helping create a real-life experience for attendees, especially during the mock cardiac arrest scenario where calls were dispatched and communicated with crews just like an actual emergency response.

Thank you to Hackensack University Medical Center for landing their medical helicopter in our parking lot and providing a demonstration for the community.

We would also like to thank New York State Department of Health Bureau of EMS and Good Samaritan Hospital Trauma Center for attending and setting up informational tables during the event.

We appreciate everyone who helped make the day such a success and look forward to continuing to educate and engage with our community.

On Friday, the President of the United States visited the Town of Ramapo in Rockland County. Spring Hill EMS was honored to provide an ALS ambulance as part of the motorcade operation.

We are grateful for the trust placed in our agency and proud to support the safety and medical needs of those visiting our community. This opportunity reflects the professionalism, preparedness, and dedication of our members, who continue to serve with pride during both routine operations and high-profile events.

Over the last three days, Spring Hill EMS handled more than 82 calls with every call covered despite the high call volume.
Additionally we had a crew providing support during the President’s visit, working in collaboration with many other agencies including Stony Point and Faist EMS. During this time, we also provided mutual aid assistance to Haverstraw, Stony Point, New City, and Faist EMS.

Today, during the early morning hours around 5:00 AM, we had four volunteer crews out handling emergencies simultaneously.

We would like to thank all of our members who came out, took calls, covered shifts, and continued stepping up throughout these busy few days. Your dedication and commitment to the community do not go unnoticed.
