From a distance relativ of the namesake. I will have to come and visit someday from Ann Arbor.

Cool! This might be as interesting as topix.com someday!! Let's party!!

Nice design on this website Larry! Keep up the good work. Also, thank you loud township citizens for standing behind the EMS dept during these changing times. Your support is greatly appreciated. - DA

Larry Pascador informs me that there is a defibrillator in the ambulance stationed at the Loud Twp Hall. It is locked, but a first responder would be there soon to open it. Hope this all makes you feel safer.

We have one of the most advanced EMS companies in our local (Atlanta based) Tri-Township Ambulance Service. They have about 35 part timers and 12 or so full timers. And they cover both basic and advanced EMT and paramedics with advanced life support training. They also have a fleet of well equipped vehicles which are kept very busy, not only with medical calls, but with many transfers from one hospital to another, or taking patients from a nursing home to a medical appointment in another part of the state. Many calls are even done in the UP. We can rest assured in Loud Twp., that should we need medical help, our 911 call is dispatched immediately and a response is immediately from Atlanta. Local volunteer EMTs may also respond by their own vehicles even before the ambulance, so evaluation of the scene and patient can begin. I think we are in good hands here in Atlanta, and maybe even better than anywhere "downstate". Sorry, I don't know where the nearest defibrillator is, and yours is a good question I will look into further.
