The West Milford Township First Aid Squad is a non-profit organization of more than
60 volunteers.
We provide emergency first aid and ambulance services to West Milford, New Jersey 24 hours a day, seven days a week all year long. Occasionally we assist the surrounding towns when their squads are unavailable. Our crews stand by at local sporting events and public gatherings. We are trained to provide first aid at mass casualty incidents and were on hand on 9/11/2001. Our squad has the distinction of being the first squad in the State of New Jersey certified to use automated external defibrillators (AEDs). All members are required to be State certified EMT's.
At our main building we have crutches, wheelchairs and other items to loan out for short-term use. If you are interested in the loan of equipment please call 973-728-3754 for more information.
