Emergency Medical Services

The Hull Fire Department delivers the highest level of medical care possible to the citizens of Hull. Our department has a staffing level of 17 Paramedics and 5 Emergency Medical Technicians. We provide ALS (Advanced life support) with two ambulances staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.  Our first line truck is a transporting ambulance.  The second is a non- transporting Command vehicle. This allows us to carry additional medical equipment so paramedics can initiate Advanced Life support treatment while waiting for another transporting ambulance to arrive if ours happens to be on another emergency call at that time.

Emergency Medical incidents account for almost 70% of the total responses from the Hull Fire Department yearly. The department is constantly working to keep up with the demands of the public, and it is through this effort that we are able to supply the highest medical care possible at the most affordable cost.

The EMS system at the Hull Fire Department has other members who contribute to the success of this system. FF Ted Sapienza is the EMS assistant coordinator. Ted has worked diligently to assure that the daily drug logs are in compliance with the department and state regulations. In addition to his daily duties Ted also orders all medical supplies for the department.  Captain Steve Johnson is the liaison for our computer system, AMBUPRO.  He reviews and submits all patient care reports to the state and billing company on a regular basis. The EMS division has recently formed an “EMS group”. This group meets monthly to review policies, training, education and any other issues regarding EMS to assure that the care provided by the Hull Fire Department is nothing short of excellent.  Special thanks to the EMS group FF Wholley, FF Pari, FF Andrews and FF Gibbons for their additional assistance in the Departments EMS system.

Most importantly, the EMS system at the Hull Fire Department would not work as fluently and flawlessly as is does without the help and support from all members who work day in and day out to provide the best Emergency care to the citizens of Hull and beyond!
