U7 10 Pages ISc aLeJprrisQQiL Boardman gets ambulance An ambulant service is about to start at Boardman. Emergency Medical Techni cians (EMTs) have banded together in the small but rapidly growing community to bring the city its first ambu lance service. The vehicle ia expected to arrive any day. "We have needed some thing like this for years and years." said EMT Gunner Skoubo, Boardman. "I ean't- aay how great it feels that it's really coming." LL Crant Ather of the He rmiston Police Department has already given 15 Board man residents EMT training. "We're similar to para medics but not so involved," Skoubo said in explaining the function of an EMT. "Our training is in assisting an injured person and transport ing him until we can get to a doctor." "We're not trained for intravenoua injections," said Skoubo. "Rather we're involv ed in taking blood pressure and respiration, judging injur ies and giving cardto pulmon ary and mouth tomouth re suscitation when needed. We are there to austain life and make a person comfortable until a doctor can take over." EMTs will be providing the service with the aid of a service with the aid of county financing. Most of the hospital cases will be Uken to hermis ton. A charge for the use of the ambulance is being pro posed, similar to the Hermis lon ambulance ee. EMTs will work n a volunUry basis. "The city fathers are again at this idea because they are afraid of the city be ins sued."

"But as long as we don't charge for our services suing us wouldn't do anyone any good. We are working on the good Samari tan law. We won't be doing anything we haven't beea trained for." Presently the two ambu lances in the area are station ed 60 miles apart, one ia Hermistoa and the other at Heppner. "Now that distance will be cut in half." Skoubo noted.
