PUBLIC SAFETY ANNOUNCEMENT: Yesterday while one of our crews were riding through town they saw a school age individual run between two cars and directly out into traffic without stopping and looking before doing so! Please BE VIGILANT both drivers and pedestrians. Parents please express the extreme dangers of roadway hazards to your children. Also in the past few weeks we’ve seen an increase in individuals running the stop signs on bicycles and in cars, this also includes children. We are genuinely concerned for the safety and wellbeing of our community. Please do your part and use caution throughout!!

September is Su***de Prevention Month, a crucial time to recognize the mental health challenges faced by EMS Clinicians.

Clinicians answer the call every single day, often facing high-stress situations, critical incidents, and long hours. Behind every uniform is a person who needs care, compassion, and community support. Prioritizing Clinician wellness and breaking the stigma around seeking help is essential to saving lives.

If you or a colleague are struggling, you do not have to carry the weight alone. Confidential, 24/7 support is available:
Immediate Support Resources
🔹 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline: Call or text 988 | Visit 988lifeline.org
🔹 Crisis Text Line: Text HOME to 741741 to connect with a crisis counselor.
🔹 The NVFC Fire/EMS Helpline: Call 1-888-731-FIRE (3473) for free, confidential, 24/7 support tailored for emergency responders.
🔹 National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI): Visit nami.org for mental health education and peer support resources.

Please share this message to ensure every Clinician knows help is always within reach.
