Yesterday was a busy day for the Volunteer Firefighters of Rescue Co.1 At around 1pm, Rescue 1 was requested Mutual Aid by Suffern FD to Good Samaritan Hospital Emergency Room to assist with removing a toy from a child’s tongue. Rescue 1 responded with a full crew and once on scene we utilized our Man vs. Machine kit alongside Suffern firefighters and ER doctors. After a short time, we were able to successfully remove the object from the child’s mouth. Later that evening Rescue 1, Rescue Engine 117, and Engine 115 responded to Avenue A for an MVA with entrapment. The patient who had been removed prior to our arrival was transported by Mahwah EMS to an area hospital.
