Have you ever thought of becoming a
volunteer first responder?
Information
session from 5:30 pm until 6:30 pm
on
Thursday April 10 at the Scotland Island Fire Station
As you most probably know, the Scotland Island Rural Fire Brigade has a
CFR (Community First Responders) team that comes in action when there
are medical emergencies on the island. The team will be the first to
respond if a 000 medical emergency is received. The team is trained in
first response and handing over to the NSW Ambulance service if
necessary.
You can become a member
of the team. The course and ongoing training is quite a commitment,
however you will be able to make a real difference for the community on
our Island. Prior medical training is not required.
There will be an information session from 5:30 pm until 6:30 pm on
Thursday April 10 at the Scotland Island Fire Station. You are welcome if
you would like to find out more.
Please register so we know you are coming.

Message from Bill Lee
Community Fire Unit of the Scotland Island RFS
One thing that became clear during our training was the difficulty emergency services have in
identifying our properties in the unfortunate event that any of
us should need them.
Our first task is to
improve this situation and we would like your input and suggestions
please.
Speaking to the Water Police they have the same problem from the water
side too, so ideas for both land and water side recognition please.
If you could email yours to me at sisland@bigpond.com
we, at the CFU, would be most grateful.
Thank you in advance - Bill
