Ambulance Service
Skagit County Medic One not only supports Basic Life Support training to Fire Departments, but also ensures that Advanced Life Support care is available to Skagit County citizens by using the Medic One levy funds. Advanced Life Support care usually comes in the form of a paramedic in an ambulance. This means that a paramedic can provide advanced life saving health care services outside of the hospital, including provision of medications and invasive procedures, bringing an extension of the Emergency Room directly to the patient.
Public Training
The Skagit County EMS Commission is proud to offer CPR and first aid training to Skagit County residents. We offer monthly classes in a different location in the county. The classes are taught in English. Efforts have been made to make these classes available at the best possible times and days of the week that would accommodate most people. For most of our courses, CPR and first aid are taught in conjunction over two, four hour sessions. Participants are encouraged to attend both sessions.
Injury Prevention
Skagit County Medic One coordinates local injury prevention efforts as the proud sponsoring agency for Safe Kids Skagit County, a Washington state chapter of Safe Kids Worldwide. Safe Kids Skagit County works to prevent accidental childhood injury, the leading killer of children 14 and under.
