May 16, 2015—National EMS (Emergency Medical Services) Week will take place from May 18th to May 24th. EMS Week brings together local communities and medical personnel to honor the dedication of those who provide the day-to-day lifesaving services on medicine’s front-line. This year’s EMS Week theme is “We care. For Everyone.”
Centre LifeLink EMS is proud of the dedication and commitment our staff and volunteers show our community and patients each day. We encourage our community members to join us in thanking our paramedics, EMTs, and non-emergency transport staff for all that they do. Some suggestions on how to show your support include:
Become a member of Centre LifeLink: Members of Centre LifeLink pay no out-of-pocket expenses for emergency ambulance services. This benefit is unlimited and also covers lift-assists. Membership funds are used to offset the cost of replacing life-saving medical equipment on our ambulances. You can sign up for memberships online: https://admin.eservicestech.com/p/centrelifelink/membership, or contact our office at (814) 237-8163.
Take a community CPR class: Learn how to save a life! Bystanders of cardiac events play a crucial role in the successful outcome of our cardiac arrest patients. By learning how to initiate CPR and use an AED, you’re helping to make our community a safer place. Our classes differ by level and are open to the community monthly. Classes can be found online: https://admin.eservicestech.com/p/centrelifelink/events
