Texline EMS and the City of Texline have become aware of statements made by the Director of Stratford EMS during a recent Hospital Board meeting. We would like to address these comments directly and put any community concerns or rumors to rest.

There is no truth to the statements made by Stratford EMS Director, Mr. Lanning, regarding Texline’s state inspection. We have been actively working with Mr. Lanning and our DSHS State EMS Representative to correct the erroneous information stated during this meeting.

To be clear: Texline EMS underwent its routine state inspection on Friday, May 15th - which is standard for all EMS providers every couple of years. We are proud to report that we passed with flying colors, with zero deficiencies, fines, or sanctions. In fact, Texline EMS has maintained a perfect record with no deficiencies, fines, or sanctions across multiple inspections dating back nearly a decade under current administration.

As always, Texline EMS remains committed to providing the highest level of care through continuous improvement. Recent accomplishments include:
* All EMS volunteers completed a comprehensive 40-hour refresher course last year, featuring hands-on skills training and the latest educational and treatment updates.
* The addition of a new Paramedic to our roster with the successful licensure advancement of Tasha Coulter, which required 1,300 hours of education and 500 hours of hands on clinical and ambulance experience.
* Approval and award of a grant for a new ambulance and equipment, expected to arrive within the next 18–24 months.

Texline EMS is deeply proud of our dedicated volunteers and the quality of service we provide to our community. At a time when many rural EMS services are struggling or closing, we continue to thrive and improve. Our Medical Director, EMS leadership, and entire team remain committed to maintaining the highest standards of training, personnel, and equipment to best serve the residents of Texline.

By now, most people in the community have heard about the large grass fire east of Texline on Friday night.
What some may not know is just how many people — outside of our fire department — stepped up to help. Farmers brought tractors and plows, and individuals and businesses with any way to haul water did exactly that. We received countless calls asking where food and supplies could be delivered. Even days later, snacks and drinks continue to be dropped off at the station. Some firefighters even found supplies left in the backs of their vehicles by caring people we never had the chance to personally thank.
We also received an incredibly generous donation of supplies gathered by Texline School.
We want to sincerely thank each and every person who went out of their way to help. The support from this community has been overwhelming, and it is a reminder that in times of need, Texline always comes together.
Thank you for standing beside us.

5/15/2026 @ 19:54 — Texline Fire was paged out for another grass fire on High Lonesome Ln caused by lightning.
Many other area fire departments responded, including Dalhart, Hartley, Sedan NM, Rabbit Ear Fire, Sunray, and Stratford.
Dallam County road graders also responded, along with numerous local tractors and plows.
We want to thank all the individuals who brought their personal farm equipment to help. They willingly put this extremely valuable equipment in harm’s way, risking damage to tires and other components, with no obligation to do so. We couldn’t have done it without you!
