We are proud to announce that we have been selected to recieve the Gold Level Mission Lifeline Award through The American Heart Association (AHA). This will be the 3rd year we've recieved the Gold Award and it's only possible by the dedicated, hard working EMTs and Paramedics here at the Walton Fire Protection District. They answer your call in your time of need ensuring they rapidly recognize, treat heart attacks and strokes, then transport the patient to a capable Emergency Department.
Mission: Lifeline EMS® recognition is the American Heart Association’s program that recognizes prehospital emergency agencies for their quality of care for heart attack and stroke patients. The recognition program focuses on transforming care quality by connecting all heart attack and stroke care components into a seamlessly integrated care system. Key tenets of these systems of care reinforce evidence-based guidelines and measure performance, identify gaps, and engage in quality improvement.
