Fire chief offers insurance information

 


To The Eagle:

On behalf of the Cathlamet Fire Department, we would like to thank our community for entrusting us with your emergency medical services. We consider it a privilege and an honor to render care for you and your family when you are experiencing a medical emergency.

Because we live in a rural community, we are often faced with transport decisions that are determined by the nature of the call combined with our protocols. In order to maintain the highest quality of patient care, there may be times that requesting Life Flight for delivering our patient to the facility most appropriate for the trauma or medical emergency at hand is the best option for our patient.

As a result of these decisions, there comes a financial responsibility that most people are not prepared for. For this reason, we would like to respectfully inform our community about the supplemental insurance offered by Life Flight for the general public. The best way to receive this information is to go to their website at http://www.lifeflight.org. There you will find an application form for this benefit. Cathlamet Fire Department has no financial gain or interest in promoting this benefit other than knowing that we have informed our community of the opportunity and that this option is available to all.

Our Fire Hall will be open for guided tours during Bald Eagle Day, July 19, from 1 to 3 p.m. For your convenience, we will have Life Flight insurance forms there, also.

If you have any question about becoming a member of CFD or just want to take a tour, please stop by and see us!

Fred Johnson, Chief, Cathlamet Fire Department
