  • 11 EMT-Basics
  • 4 EMT-Intermediates
  • 3 EMT-Paramedics
  • 1 RN/EMT
  • Total: 30

The Oakes Ambulance Staff is 90% volunteer and is occassionally assisted by the Oakes Fire & Rescue Unit.

FIRST RESPONDERS

The First Responders and EMT-B's provide care that is outlined in the DOT curriculum.

The first responder has participated in a 40-hour course that reviews much more than the basic first aid level. The course work includes review of common medical emergencies, how to treat the trauma victim and get a overview of the EMS system. This level is common for police, fire or someone getting started in the primary car level program.

EMT BASIC

The EMT-I's can provide the same care, in addition to IV's access, advanced airway management, cardiac monitoring and administration of dextrose.

The EMT-I's have completed the EMT-Basic course similiar to the First Responder in content. The course completed has provided a more in-depth review of the anatomy and physiology and treatment guidleines for the meidal and trauma patient that are slightliy more advanced than the First Responder. This level is the minimum need for every ambulance call performed.

The EMT-P's can also provide that similar care to that of the EMT-I's, along with administration of medications, cardioversion, chest decompression and advanced airway.

TRAINING

Oakes Ambulance Service conducts various education seminars in the schools and elsewhere in the community.
