First Responder Program
Trained and equipped firefighters provide the quickest possible response to medical emergencies.
When a person collapses in cardiac arrest, every minute counts.
The Emergency Medical Response program (EMR) is designed to strengthen early CPR and defibrillation and therefore save lives.
During a medical emergency, the closest firefighters are dispatched at the same time as the closest ambulance.
