All of our members are trained to respond to emergency medical incidents at the EMT level. We have one basic life support (BLS) ambulance which is dispatched from our station. Advanced life support (ALS) ambulance service is provided through our mutual aid partners including Lakeview EMS in Stillwater and St. Croix EMS in Hudson.
