These ambulances are equipped with the Lifepak 15 cardiac monitor / defibrillators, advanced airway management equipment, multiple lifesaving medications and a large array of first aid and patient care equipment. Our most recent addition to each ambulance is Lucas, a $15,500 automated CPR device already credited with several life saving assists.
All Orleans firefighters are Paramedics or EMTs. Each receives continuing EMS training regularly in addition to training in other areas such as Motor Vehicle Extraction, Pediatric Advanced Life Support, Dive Search and Recovery, Trench rescues, Ice Rescue, and environmental emergencies.
The requests for service we receive are broad and unpredictable, therefore the more quality training our staff receives the better we can assist you during any type of emergency.
