Area EMTs desperately needed

Local emergency medical technicians are desperately short of help. Therefore, a class is being planned to train more EMTs to help provide this much needed service to the community and county.

Those interested are invited to attend a short, informational meeting on Tuesday, October 1 at the Dahl Memorial board room at 7 p.m. Classes will start on October 28 at 6 p.m and will take place once per week for four hours. A few weekend classes will also be scheduled (dates for these classes will be determined later).

Final written and practical tests will be in early April. Expected duties would be taking call on both weekdays and weekends. EMTs must also be willing to sit with the ambulance at various events and attend trainings to stay certified.

For more information, please call Judy Wright at 406-853-4698 or Deb Yost at 406-775-6773.
