Today we remember and honor the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. Oxford EMS was proud to participate in today’s Memorial Day parade as we joined our community in remembering those who gave everything for our freedom. Their courage and sacrifice will never be forgotten.

As EMS Week comes to a close, I want to personally thank each and every member of Oxford EMS for your continued dedication, professionalism, and commitment to serving our community.

Our volunteer membership gives countless hours away from family, work, and personal time to answer calls for help whenever they come in. Whether responding in the middle of the night, standing by at community events, training to improve skills, or supporting one another behind the scenes, your service does not go unnoticed.

This week serves as a reminder of the important role Oxfords EMS providers play every day, but the truth is that your efforts deserve recognition year-round. The compassion, teamwork, and reliability shown by our members are what make this organization strong and allow us to provide the level of care our community depends on.

I am proud to serve alongside such a dedicated group of volunteers. Thank you for everything you do, not just during EMS Week, but every single day.

And a special thanks to all of those who helped honor our team this week.

Congratulations to Training Director Keri McDermott and Oxford EMS member Breanna Toomey on being recognized by UConn Health Waterbury Hospital this past Wednesday for their outstanding contributions to EMS. Keri was presented with EMS Educator of the Year, and Breanna was honored as Tele-Communicator of the Year. These awards reflect the dedication, hard work, and impact they continue to make within the EMS community. We are proud to celebrate this well-deserved recognition and all that they do. Congratulations to you both!

Oxford EMS was awarded a Unit Citation for the team’s response to a bus accident in a neighboring town. This recognition reflects the professionalism, teamwork, and commitment demonstrated by our members in providing care and support when neighboring communities need assistance. We are proud of the dedication shown by everyone involved.

Happy EMS Week to all of our members here at Oxford EMS and to our neighboring EMS partners. While this week gives us a chance to recognize and celebrate EMS, the work doesn’t stop here.

We’re proud to share that our community has once again been re-designated as a HeartSafe Community! ❤️

The HeartSafe program recognizes communities that are committed to improving cardiac emergency preparedness and outcomes through CPR education, public access to AEDs, and coordinated emergency response efforts. Every minute matters during a cardiac emergency, and programs like this help save lives.

If your business, organization, or group is interested in CPR training or would like information about placing an AED at your location, please reach out to us at [email protected]. We’d be happy to help you become part of a safer, more prepared community.

Together, we can make a difference when it matters most!

Thank you to the First Selectman of Oxford for his continued support and the Connecticut Department of Public Health for championing this program.

We are proud that the Town of Oxford is recognized as a Heart Safe Community. ❤️

A special thank you to our Director of EMS Seth Poston and his team for their hard work, training, and commitment to keeping our community safe every day. Your service and dedication is truly appreciated!

Oxford EMS is continuing to expand its role beyond traditional EMS response.

Through the development of specialized capabilities, including our recently launched K9 Search & Rescue Division, our members are training to assist in unique, complex, and time-sensitive situations where every second matters.

Building and sustaining these capabilities takes training, equipment, and time - all made possible through community support.

Your donation helps us continue to grow and better serve Oxford and the surrounding area.
