Next time you see an ambulance zooming by🚑, think of The Freedom House Ambulance Service! They helped create the field of paramedicine as we know it today and deserve their flowers.
Some revolutionary first they are credited for include:
-first to do an on field intubation credited to Freedom House Member John Moon
-first to use a defibrillator on a patient on the field and shock a heart back to rhythm
-first to administer the opioid overdose reversal drug narcan on the field
-first to read and interpret an EKG on the field
Their groundbreaking efforts have saved countless lives.🙌🏾
