ASQUITH FIRST RESPONDERS

EMERGENCY 9-1-1

The Asquith First Responders are a group of trained volunteers who live in the community who respond to emergency situations in the community and who provide emergency medical care until the ambulance arrives.

If you are in need of emergency medical assistance, call MD Ambulance at 9-1-1 who will contact the First Responder who is closest to the situation and have them come to you at once.  There is a dispatcher on duty 24 hours a day who will contact someone to come to your assistance.

The First Responders would like to remind community members that though you may know your civic address or land location, your children, a babysitter or a visitor may not.  Keep the information beside your phone, along with directions from Saskatoon for the ambulance and from your nearest town for the First Responders.  Keep directions simple ~ good directions can make a life or death difference in a crisis!
