Community support means so much to us! 🚑💙

A huge thank you to ShopRite for stopping by and dropping off some goodies for our crews. It was such a thoughtful surprise and definitely brought some smiles around the station.

We’re grateful to serve a community that continues to show so much support for its first responders. Thank you, ShopRite!

Throughout October, our crews are wearing pink ribbons in support of those fighting breast cancer, the survivors, and the families affected by it. 💗

For the fighters. For the survivors. For those we remember. 🎀🚑

🌧️ STORM PREP: DON’T WAIT FOR THE POWER TO GO OUT 🔌🚑

With wind and periods of rain expected in our area this weekend, Port Jervis EMS wants to remind everyone to prepare now, especially residents who depend on electricity for medical equipment.

If you or someone in your home relies on an oxygen concentrator, CPAP/BiPAP, nebulizer, powered mobility device, refrigerated medication, or other electrically powered medical equipment**, please have a plan in place before an outage occurs.

🔋 Charge backup batteries and portable power supplies
🫁 Make sure backup oxygen is available if prescribed
💊 Have medications and necessary supplies readily available
📱 Keep phones and emergency devices fully charged
🔦 Have flashlights and extra batteries accessible
👨‍👩‍👧 Check on family, friends, and neighbors who may need assistance
⚡ Know how to report an outage to your electric provider.
Do not wait until your medical equipment stops working to make a plan.

If a power outage creates an immediate medical emergency, call 911.

A little preparation now can make a big difference when the lights go out.

Stay safe and stay prepared, Port Jervis. ❤️

We know, we know… fall doesn’t officially start until Tuesday.

But while the leaves are supposed to hit the ground, we’d prefer our community didn’t. 😂

And if you do? Well… we’ll be there to pick you back up.

Stay safe, watch your step, and enjoy the season!

💜 September is Su***de Prevention Month.

Your child probably knows 911. Make sure they know 988 too.

📱 988 is the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline available 24/7 by call or text for anyone who is overwhelmed, struggling, or worried about someone else.

And it may be making a difference: a 2026 JAMA research letter found 11% fewer su***des than projected among adolescents and young adults after the launch of 988, with the largest declines in states where 988 use grew the most.

One conversation can save a life.

🚨 REMINDER - ORANGE COUNTY EMERGENCY EXERCISE TOMORROW, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 9

Tomorrow, Orange County Executive Steven M. Neuhaus and the Orange County Department of Emergency Services will conduct a large-scale emergency exercise simulating a significant flooding event across Orange County.

⚠️THIS IS ONLY A TEST.
County departments and emergency response partners working together in the Emergency Operations Center will be on hand to test how we coordinate, communicate, manage resources, and respond during a major emergency.

📱 Residents may also receive a TEST emergency alert as part of the exercise.

Orange County will be testing its Countywide Emergency Alert System during the exercise. Compatible mobile devices within the targeted area may automatically receive the test message - no registration is required.

⚠️ If you receive an emergency alert on September 9 as part of this exercise, THIS IS ONLY A TEST. There is no emergency, and no action is required.

September is National Emergency Preparedness Month, making it the perfect time to test the systems, plans, and partnerships we rely on when a real emergency happens.

🚑 September is National Preparedness Month 🚑

Port Jervis EMS encourages our community to be ready for the unexpected.

One issue we commonly see is patients who rely on oxygen concentrators or other medical devices without a backup plan for power outages. Losing power can quickly create an emergency.

A few important ways to prepare:

• Build an emergency kit
• Keep medications and medical information updated
• Check smoke and CO alarms
• Make a family emergency plan
• If you use power-dependent medical equipment, have a backup oxygen source, charged batteries, or generator/backup power plan

Preparation today can make all the difference tomorrow. 💙
