Westborough Fire Advanced Cardiac Life Support Care
The Fire Department operates at the Advanced Life Support level of emergency care. At the advanced level our customers receive:
* Advanced paramedic level assessment
* Advanced airway protection
*12 Lead ECG interpretation for earlier detection of heart attacks
* Ability to administer medications.
* Advanced respiratory care
* The rapid detection of life threatening cardiac dysrhythmias and treatment with medications
* The decompression of serious chest injuries
* Pediatric Advanced Life Support
* Neonatal Advanced Care
The ability to rapidly assess and intervene with advanced medical care has improved many of our patients' outcomes. Patients are in better condition on arrival at the hospital, usually resulting in shorter hospital stays and improved outcomes.
Westborough resident, Dr.Robert Srebnik serves as the department's medical director. Dr.Srebnik was instrumental in the development of our paramedic program and continues to lead our Paramedic Quality Assurance Program. We are most grateful for his service to the community and the department.
