In the mid 1950s, Newton Memorial Hospital administration approached a bright group of civic leaders

In the mid 1950s, Newton Memorial Hospital administration approached a bright group of civic leaders to replace the over-burdened hospital ambulance service. Today, the Newton First Aid Squad is requested to nearly 2,000 medical emergencies annually.

This morning, at the Sussex County 9/11 Memorial ceremony, we took time to reflect upon and remember an event that changed the course of our nation and our way of life.

Twenty-five years ago, nearly 3000 civilians, public safety personnel, and members of our military perished in our generation's worst flashbulb memory.

The impact of this event shall forever remain as we not only honor the memories of those lost but also the lives of those continuing to suffer.

Another Fall EMT Class Begins! 🚑

Last night, five of our members officially began their journey toward becoming certified Emergency Medical Technicians! This is the beginning of a challenging road, but we couldn’t be more excited or incredibly impressed of each of them for stepping up and taking on this opportunity to serve our community.

There’s a lot of hard work ahead, but together, we know they’ll succeed. We’re looking forward to seeing them out on the road in early 2027, beginning Field Training and putting their skills to work helping people in their time of need.

To our newest EMT students: Good luck, guys and girls! You’ve got this!

We’re proud of you and can’t wait to see where this journey takes you!

We look forward to their future together, and to continuing to serve our community alongside them as one united team with the rest of our Newton EMS family.

Congratulations, Mr. & Mrs. Posey! We wish you both a lifetime of love, happiness, and countless wonderful memories together. ❤️🚑
