👻 Ghosting this Halloween: cold coffee, dead radio batteries, and the “Q-word” (we’re superstitious).

Not ghosting: 911 calls and our community. Day or night, holidays included. 🧡🚑

Have a safe and happy Halloween week to all who celebrate! Watch for pedestrians in the dark, plan a sober ride home, be mindful of candy allergens, and keep your jack-o’-lanterns glowing with battery-powered candles instead of open flames. 🎃

As always, call us if you need us!

Nobody hopes to use this training. Every first responder needs it anyway.

Last week, our paramedics teamed up with local fire, EMS, and law enforcement crews for a large-scale drill simulating a charter aircraft emergency. Big thanks to King County Airport, the Museum of Flight, and many other local partners for making it happen.

Mass casualty incidents move fast. The teams that respond best have already trained side by side. Realistic practice builds the communication, clarity, and trust that count when every minute matters. ⏰

To everyone who took part: thank you. Especially our volunteers, who played injured passengers and brought the heat of a real scene. You help keep our region ready.

A huge thank you to Brian Fick of WestCoast Fire Media for sharing such fantastic photos!

🚑 TNG300 is officially in service! 💪

Meet our new Training Medic Unit! Stocked just like a frontline medic unit, it brings crews the realistic, hands-on experience that makes training stick.
Our Paramedic Shift Trainer group will put it to work right away, rolling out to fire departments for BLS Fridays and making interagency training more accessible without sacrificing quality. It will also play a key role in preparing our new probationary paramedics, along with a variety of other training opportunities throughout the year.
When BLS and ALS work together, patients get top-notch care. The more realistic reps we get, the better the outcomes for our communities.
Realistic training builds confident, capable providers, and TNG300 is ready to roll. Let’s get to work! 🩺
