ITS CHRISTMASTIME IN THE OFFICE

We broke out all the old holiday decorations in the bunk room two weeks ago and brought some Christmas cheer into the office. We hung up everyone's stockings (some of them most likely were here many moons ago)

UPDATES

Sorry for being slow in my updates, but things have been crazy here at FUEMS over the past month or so!

On November 5 we held our annual advisory board with the officer staff, the school administration, and our outside advisers from St. Barnabas, Montefiore North Division, and our past directors and chiefs. The meeting was very productive and highlighted all the accomplishments of FUEMS over the past year. Some of the main points of the meeting were talking about our budding partnership with the American Red Cross in the Bronx, the ambulances, protocol updates, and our entry into the 21st century by way of this blog and Blackboard (a program that allows us to easily information within the organization).

We also just recently purchased two new Stryker model stair chairs to replace to old models that most of you most likely remember using when you were here. These new chairs utilize the tread system therefore saving our backs and making access to buildings with no elevators (or small elevators) easier.

Keep an eye out for an e-mail blast with information about this years upcoming dinner (April 17) , which we hope you all will attend.

Hope everyone is having a great holiday season!

THANKSGIVING DINNER


Each year the entire organization gets together to celebrate EMS Thanksgiving.

As is tradition, the officer staff made all the side dishes for the dinner and we were very lucky to have our adviser Kathleen cook us the Turkey again this year!
Landi and Liz appear very happy to be eating


Dave got the honors of carving the Turkey
