🚑🚒 Keansburg EMS at Touch-A-Truck! 🚒🚑

Keansburg EMS had a great time participating in today's Touch-A-Truck event at Keansburg High School!

It was great seeing so many families come out and giving the kids an opportunity to get an up-close look at our emergency vehicles, meet some of our volunteer members, and learn a little about what we do!

Events like these are a great way for us to connect with the community we proudly serve every day. ❤️

Thank you to everyone who stopped by to say hello, check out our equipment, and show your support!

🚑 Fun Fact! Our annual donation mailer is officially out!

Last year, we mailed out approximately 5,500 envelopes and received only about 200 donations back.

To put that into perspective, we answer around 200 calls in just ONE month! We help a lot more than 200 people throughout the year!

If every household in Keansburg donated just $20, we could raise over $100,000!

It doesn't take much to make a big difference when everyone chips in. Let's see if we can beat those 200 donations this year! ❤️🚑

🚑 26 Years. 150,000 Miles. Countless Calls.

Today is a bittersweet day as Ambulance 2157, our 2000 Ford, officially comes out of service after 26 years serving the Borough of Keansburg.

2157 is older than nearly 90% of our current avtive membership. Generations of members have trained on her, driven her, worked out of her, and made countless memories along the way.

She served Keansburg through Hurricane Sandy, COVID-19, major fires, large-scale incidents, and thousands of emergency calls. She even outlived our newer 2006 ambulance and once spent an entire summer as the only ambulance serving the Borough, without any major issues.

After 26 years and more than 150,000 miles, she still runs today. That's a testament to what proper maintenance and taking pride in your equipment can accomplish.

But EMS has changed tremendously since 2000. Technology, equipment, and safety standards have evolved, and despite still running strong, 2157 has become outdated. It's time for the next chapter.

Her ambulance module will be refurbished, updated, and remounted onto a new chassis, while the original Ford will be repurposed as a Keansburg DPW work truck.

Thank you, 2157, for 26 incredible years of service. When Keansburg needed her, she was there. This isn't goodbye. We'll see you when you get home. ❤️🚑

🌧️ NOR’EASTER REMINDER 🚑

With the upcoming storm, please help keep 911, Police, Fire, and EMS available for true emergencies.

DO NOT call 911 or the Police Department to report or ask for updates about a power outage. We have access to the same outage information you do. Please report outages directly to your utility provider.

Please do not call EMS for minor or non-emergency medical issues that can safely wait.

Only call 911 for an actual emergency.

During severe weather, unnecessary calls tie up emergency personnel and resources that may be needed elsewhere.

Stay safe and please use emergency services appropriately.
