Our story…
Barriere First Responders is a not-for-profit society that provides emergency medical care to patients per the request of the British Columbia Ambulance Service. First Responders are trained to provide basic life-saving procedures that are critical to patients’ life and safety when an Ambulance delay is inevitable.
Our society responds to approximately 100 calls annually in the District of Barriere and the surrounding area.
The Society has no source of committed funding, so it fundraises and applies for grants to buy first aid re-stock, equipment, fuel, insurance, and training supplies. We look forward to serving the community and hope that if you have any questions that you will contact us, we are more than willing to answer them!
Our Mission…
Our mission is to provide emergency medical care to patients until the British Columbia Ambulance Service arrives on the scene and takes over patient care.
