The Saraland Fire Recue Department is proud to offer it's customers the highest level of Emergency Medicine available to Alabama residents. We are a State Licensed Advanced Life Support Provider. We offer quality patient care with compassion. We do not charge for these services.

Some of the abilities of our Advanced Life Support units include:

• 12 Lead Electro-Cardiogram

This technology allows for a faster interpretation of a myocardial infarction thus reducing the time it takes to determine the proper facility and treatment.

• Hands Free CPR  "Auto-Pulse"

This device allows our paramedics to administer chest compressions with a machine, thus freeing up someone to provide other needed patient care.

• CPAP

CPAP is a respiratory device recently cleared for use by the Alabama Department of Public Health for use on patients with severe respiratory problems.

• Alabama Trauma Call Center

The Alabama Trauma Call Center provides our units on scene with real time availability of Emergency Departments that can handle the patient. This will eliminate patient diverting as well as allow us to transport to the "best" facility for the patient, which is not necessarily the "closest".

All of our non ALS units are Basic Life Support capable. Automated External Defibrillators are assigned to all units.
