Community Paramedicine in Action Webinar

In rural Washington County, getting to the nearest hospitals in Glens Falls, Saratoga, Troy, or even Vermont can take a long time. That’s why the Cambridge Valley Rescue Squad (CVRS) started Community Paramedicine—bringing healthcare right to people’s homes. Paramedics visit patients for non-emergency needs like checking medications, helping manage ongoing health problems, and following up with people who call 911 often. This means fewer long trips to the hospital.
