Sheriff, ambulance service forge closer tie |
February 3, 2017 |
In a time of continual threats against law
enforcement officers, the Boundary County
Sheriff's Office and Boundary Ambulance Service
have created a partnership to protect our law
enforcement personnel in high threat tactical
situations.
Sheriff Dave Kramer has taken a step for officer
safety and created the first ever Tactical EMS (TEMS)
Paramedic position within the BCSO.
This morning Boundary Ambulance Chief Jeff
Lindsey was sworn in as a reserve deputy by
Sheriff Kramer, beginning a great partnership
between the two great agencies.
The TEMS Paramedic will be responsible for
Advanced Life Support care of Boundary County
law enforcement officers in high risk tactical
events.
Chief Lindsey previously served with the Bonner
County Sheriff as a TEMS Paramedic and has
received special training for the position.
Boundary Ambulance is excited about this new
partnership and even more excited about the
opportunity to serve alongside our law
enforcement community in Boundary County. |
