Last evening members from the Spring-Ford area joined our EMS Division for our Community CPR session. Studies have shown time and time again minimizing CPR and AED application is the most effective way to revive someone who is in cardiac arrest. For every minute that passes without intervention the chance of survival lowers by 10% so having as many people as possible trained to deliver this life-saving care is paramount. We are proud to announce 11 members of the community are now CPR & AED certified, ready to respond if the need ever arises.

The Royersford Fire Department also has a slew of events over the next handful of months we are hosting or taking part in!
