The Flemington-Raritan First Aid and Rescue Squad is a combination volunteer and career Emergency Medical and Rescue Services provider serving Flemington Borough, Raritan Township, and parts of Readington and Delaware Townships. We were established in 1952, following in the traditions set forth by the Flemington American Legion Ambulance and Civil Defense Corps. Since then we have grown to an organization with over 40 members and a wide variety of specialized vehicles and equipment and we answered over 2000 calls for service in 2004. We continue to work hard to grow and meet the needs of our diverse and ever changing community. Our goal is to provide the quickest and most professional services that our residents and business require.
We provide 24 hour a day 365 days a year coverage with crews in our station. What this means is that when you call for our services, we are ready to respond immediately. We have made this commitment to provide quicker service for you, our residents and businesses. This coverage is provided by our dedicated volunteers and career employees. Without their commitment, this type of service would not be possible. We have an average response time of under 8 minutes to emergency calls. This time is calculated from the time we are dispatched to your emergency to the time all equipment needed arrives on the scene to assist. With over 50 square miles of coverage area, we are proud to offer these response capabilities.
The squad provides emergency ambulance services and specialized rescue services.
