Halifax EMS announces that we will be hosting a nation-wide short story contest as a both a means of promoting EMS in literature and raising funds for our young squad. One half of the funds raised will be used for prize money, awarded to the authors of the top three stories. The other half of the money will be used for equipment and expenses associated with providing pre-hospital emergency care in a remote rural Vermont town. The minimum prize for first place is $1,000.

What is our goal
We are a rapid response medical team of trained and licensed volunteers. We have oxygen, medical equipment, and a few essential tools. We provide care to our neighbors after a call has been placed to 911 and before the ambulance arrives on scene. We are on-duty every day, every night -- Dial 911 in case of any emergency.
