Who benefits from paramedic-level ambulance service?
Everyone benefits from the security and life-saving capability of paramedic-level ambulance service. Allergic children, older parents and relatives, ill or injured friends, all the people we care about in our community will be more likely to survive and lead healthier lives if paramedic emergency responders can treat them and get them to the emergency room faster. The loss of a single life, or the lifetime physical/emotional impairment of a single person, or the unnecessary prolonged suffering of a single patient or victim, any of which were due solely to the lack of paramedic-level ambulance service affects us all. Blaine County prides itself on the quality-of-life and care we extend to our residents and visitors. Surely the residents and visitors of our community deserve, and are entitled to, an adequate paramedic-level service for their emergency medical needs.
