Despite long hours, continuing education requirements, and struggles to find additional personnel, emergency medical services crews are always there to help.

In conjunction with the Homestead Resort and local emergency services, an event called “EMS Salutes Bath County Emergency Services Heroes” is planned for May 21.

The number of active Emergency Medical Technicians is at an all time low and calls for service are increasing. Volunteers are desperately needed in Bath County for the local rescue squads in Burnsville, Hot Springs and Millboro.

It’s a day of fun for all ages, a fundraiser for local volunteer rescue squads and a way for them to say thank you for the year round community support.

May 16th through the 22nd, 2010 is National Emergency Medical Services Week. Dr. George Damewood offers this tribute of these hard working, and often unpaid volunteers.

Dr. Gullet lends his medical expertise to the county Emergency Medical Services Authority while also working as an emergency room doctor at Pocahontas Memorial Hospital.
