, New York State Certified First Responders, Emergency Medical Technicians, and Paramedics. The EMS team is trained to use an Automatic External Defibrillator (AED) for cardiac arrest patients, Oxygen, and airway management equipment - all of which is contained in our EMS response vehicle. The equipment and personnel are dispatched to respond in advance of an ambulance to get medical aid to a patient as quickly as possible. All emergency calls are received at Broome County's state-of-the-art 911 Communications Center. All alarms are radio-dispatched to our personnel through this Center. Upon receiving an alarm, members respond to the station and respond the proper emergency equipment to the scene.

Dry Grass + High Heat = Extreme Fire Danger
By late summer, lawns and brush are dried out and highly flammable. A single spark can start a fast-moving fire. Help the crew prevent brush fires with these tips:
• Mow Early: Never mow dry grass on hot, windy days. Rock strikes can spark a fire.
• Check Your Chains: Ensure trailer tow chains are secure and not dragging on the pavement.
• No Parking on Grass: Hot exhaust pipes and catalytic converters can instantly ignite dry grass underneath your car.
• Drown the Empties: Safely dispose of ci******es in designated ashtrays, never out the car window.
Let's protect our community and our open spaces!
