Units responding to Wilmot High School for medical call
Town of Salem Fire/Rescue PARAMEDICS respond to Wilmot High School for medical emergencies, yet Silver Lake Rescue Squad EMTs respond to Riverview Grade School for medical emergencies. That does not seem reasonable!
@Medical Mystery: I can clarify this for you. Here in Silver Lake, our rescue squad service and their supporters have repeated told the village that we do not need paramedic level service, and the state of Wisconsin will not let us obtain it. Hope this helps solve the question.
Here in Paddock Lake, our students at Central High receive paramedic care from Salem Fire Department. We are very pleased with the service. Ditto for our Kenosha County sheriff patrols. Not sure why anyone would REFUSE paramedic service?
Here in Bristol, residents are very satisfied with the response we receive from the Bristol Fire Department paramedics and the Kenosha County Sheriff’s Dept.
