Bushkill Township Volunteer Fire Co - EMS

Bushkill Township Volunteer Fire Co - EMS The Bushkill Township Fire Company is proudly servicing the residents and visitors of Bushkill towns The Bushkill Township Ambulance Corps.

was formed by volunteers to provide emergency medical care to the residents of Bushkill Township and occasionally to surrounding communities. During 2006, the fire company realized that protecting township residents was more important than tradition. With the growing number of homes and structures throughout the township and increased time demands and constraints on dwindling volunteers, it was no

t possible to provide professional and efficient all volunteer emergency services during daytime hours. Therefore, during July 2007, the fire company added service paid EMTs to cover 12-hour shifts from 5 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. This ended a 48-year run at being 100% volunteer. In late December of 2016, the ambulance corps. jumped a major hurdle and have become an advanced life support service with paramedics. With the increased demand on emergency services, the ems is now paid 24/7 with both basic and advanced life support services. We have also begun doing non-emergency patient transports in addition to emergency calls to assist in the cost of paid EMT's. The paid positions are funded largely through the impressive fundraising efforts of the fire company, including significant work by the ladies auxiliary.

It has been brought to our attention that someone has been calling our residents asking for a donation for the fire company. They have even asked for credit card information. We do not make direct phone calls to residents, this is a scam call and the best thing to do is hang up. We send out an EMS subscription in March and a fire company fund drive in October, both by mail. This is the only direct donation requesting we do. Thank-you
