We hope your day is filled with laughter, gratitude, and pride for our great nation. If you need us, we're here 24/7, ready to answer the call.

EMS Week 2026 is an opportunity to recognize the dedicated Emergency Medical Services professionals who answer the call every hour of every day to serve our community.

Whether responding to medical emergencies, motor vehicle accidents, critical illnesses, or providing compassionate care during someone’s worst day, EMS providers stand ready with professionalism, skill, and commitment.

We would also like to thank the residents of our community for the continued support you show our EMS personnel. Your encouragement, trust, and appreciation mean more than words can express.

This week, we proudly recognize the EMTs, Paramedic’s and all those who work together to provide emergency care when it matters most.

From all of us at Madawaska EMS, thank you for allowing us the privilege of serving this community.

Today we recognize and congratulate our three graduates of the Northern Maine Community College paramedic program!
This program is no easy accomplishment. It requires countless hours of classroom instruction, clinical rotations, studying, and hands-on training — all while continuing to work full time for our department.
We are incredibly proud of the hard work, dedication, and perseverance each of these graduates has shown throughout this journey. Their commitment to advancing their skills and providing high-quality care speaks volumes about the kind of providers they are and the future of EMS in our communities.
Thank you for your dedication to our department and to the communities we proudly serve. Congratulations on this outstanding achievement — we look forward to seeing all that you accomplish as paramedics!

Public Service Announcement

The Madawaska Safety Complex would like to inform the public that, effective 05/05/2026, the use of our driveway for vehicle turnarounds is no longer permitted. This includes the entire driveway from the corner of 6th avenue near the Police Department up to the far end of the Fire Department driveway.

This decision has been made in the interest of public safety. There have been several recent near-collisions involving civilian vehicles and emergency apparatus entering and exiting the facility. Ensuring clear and unobstructed access is critical for our ability to respond quickly and safely to emergencies.

Additionally, frequent use of the driveway for turning around has led to increased wear and tear on the pavement, resulting in higher maintenance costs.

We kindly ask all motorists to avoid using the Safety Complex driveway for turnaround purposes and to seek alternative locations when needed.

We appreciate your understanding, attention, and cooperation in helping us maintain a safe environment for both the public and our emergency personnel.

Thank You
Respectfully,
Your Madawaska Public Safety Chiefs
