The Johnson Lake EMS is proud to assist persons with medical needs until a local ambulance can take them to an area hospital.
This year, we finally replaced our very old medical bags. They make equipment more organized for quick retrieval of supplies.
We are replacing the old life preserver equipment in the blue plastic barrels along the canal system. Please look at the pictures to see how bright and straightforward they are. The old ones had rotted away from years of weathering. This is a joint project with CNPPID.
We got new radio/scanner handhelds because our old ones wouldn't recharge.
We plan to replace our old AEDs because their batteries are no longer available due to new models. Thank goodness we bought enough batteries to hold us until we can replace them
We distributed the new Lake directories to area secretaries for 2023-2025. Enjoy the awesome pictures on the covers, which residents submitted.
We will have some new team members who are taking classes through CCC. We pay for all classes and equipment for team members.
