The demands on our volunteers have grown over the years and the need for additional members has grown along with it. The Newport Volunteer Rescue Squad responds to about 275 calls each year.
We have three types of members: operational, support and junior.
Operational members, range from EMT to paramedic, who commit to providing professional EMS care to our community. Training and continuing education is provided.
Support members are members wishing to serve in different capacities, including office, facility, fund drives, and special events.
Junior members between the ages of 15 and 18 participate in squad activities, assist with fund raising activities, and attend business and training meetings.
New members are the lifeblood of our organization.
Our mentoring program supports and guides new members as they work their way up the ladder of success.
Members are provided uniforms, jackets and other items.
Business meetings are the first Monday of the month, and dinner is provided to all members in attendance.
We support the families of our community through social functions such as barbecues, children’s parties, and family picnics.
