The Town of Orwell in conjunction with the Orwell Rescue Squad will sponsor community members for an upcoming Vermont First Responder course. This is an introductory course to provide basic assessment and minimal care for patients until advanced care is there to take over. The course is held over two days (October 28 & 29) at Middlebury Regional EMS. Upon completion you will have the basic knowledge needed to join the Rescue Squad and help your community. Please contact Peter W Ochs, President of Orwell Rescue at either 802-236-6613 or peterochs69@gmail.com. Or Kirk Gallipo of MREMS at kgallipo@middleburyems.com

If this weekend does not work for you but you are interested in it please contact Peter or Kirk and they will help you find a course.
