First responders are there for you in your time of need showing no weakness. EMS personnel experience, see, hear, and witness unimaginable things. The pressures of the job often lead to mental stress, depression, PTSD, and suicide. It's time to take a stand for those who serve, save, and protect our community day in and day out.

If you need help or know someone who does Code Green has endless resources. Safe Call Now 1-206-459-3020 A 24/7 help line staffed by first responders for first responders and their family members.

At our monthly rescue training members practiced auto extrication. Vehicle extrication is a delicate balance between time and safety. When moments matter each t...eam member has a vital role to play. These steps include scenes size-up, vehicle stabilization, patient access, safe patient extrication, and transport to the hospital. Our goal is to get the patient or patients to an appropriate level of care within the golden hour. See more

At last night’s training our members were able to get hands on practice with our new LUCAS Device! When cardiac arrest happens, high quality chest compressions are a vital component to lifesaving CPR. The LUCAS device does more than just provide consistent, high-quality CPR; it works by creating a positive intrathoracic pressure when the chest is compressed. This increased pressure is what circulates blood to vitals organs such as the brain. Studies have shown an almost 20% ...increase in obtaining ROSC (return of spontaneous circulation) when using the LUCAS device. The LUCAS device has shown to increase blood flow to the brain. The LUCAS device also allows for significantly more hands on compression times.
