FIRST AID AND SAFETY PATROL NAMED 2009 PENNSYLVANIA LARGE-SERVICE AMBULANCE COMPANY OF THE YEAR

First Aid and Safety Patrol of Lebanon was Chartered on March 28, 1938 by the dedicated volunteers of the Lebanon City Fire Department. Originally organized to provide first aid care to the city firefighters, First Aid and Safety Patrol of Lebanon quickly grew to caring for the community. As the local Hospital based ambulance services became taxed beyond their resources, they relied on the men and women volunteers of First Aid and Safety Patrol of Lebanon. In 1941, First Aid and Safety Patrol of Lebanon purchased their first new ambulance. Purchased for just over $3,000, the new ambulance declared the commitment to the community that still exists today.
