Town of Phippsburg 2012 Annual Report

TOWN OF PHIPPSBURG
Rescue Department Report
In 2012, the Rescue Department responded to 191 medical emergency calls. There were 8
calls for motor vehicle crashes with personal injury and 4 with no injuries. The Rescue Department
provided 3 public service calls, 5 transfers, 6 life line checks and 6 mutual aid calls. The
weekly call schedule remains at M-F from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. and Saturday and Sundays from 6
a.m. to 6 p.m. We will again provide more daytime coverage during the summer due to the increased
number of people being in town.
I would like to thank all the volunteers on the Phippsburg Fire and Rescue Departments for
their commitment and true dedication to the Town of Phippsburg. I also would like to thank the
townspeople for their continued support as well as our dedicated Auxiliary members for all
their wonderful work and support.
The flu clinic, which was sponsored by The Totman Library during their annual senior fair,
was a great success We have medical equipment available at no charge for anyone who may
need items like walkers. shower seats, commodes, crutches and more.
I encourage people to have their houses and driveways well marked to make it easier for us
to find when responding in an emergency situation.
