Spring Hill EMS responded to two critical emergencies, including a cardiac arrest and a motor vehicle crash involving a vehicle that struck a tree.

The first call was for a 25-year-old man in the Village of Spring Valley who was reported to be having difficulty breathing. Spring Hill EMS responded with an ambulance, two paramedics, and a line officer.

Upon arrival, the advanced life support (ALS) crew determined the patient was not breathing and had no pulse. Crews immediately began CPR and advanced life-saving interventions. After several rounds of resuscitation efforts, the patient regained a pulse and was transported to a local hospital for further treatment.

In a separate incident, Spring Hill EMS responded with two ambulances, a paramedic, and a line officer to the Town of Ramapo for a motor vehicle crash involving a vehicle that struck a tree.

When crews arrived, the vehicle’s occupants had already been extricated. EMS personnel evaluated the patients at the scene before transporting two individuals to local hospitals for further evaluation and treatment.

Spring Hill EMS thanked its volunteer members for their dedication and commitment to providing emergency medical care to the community whenever they are called into service.
