Arcadia firefighters and paramedics save a boy with asthma. The boy visits the fire station and firefighters go to the boy's birthday party. Community ties are strengthened by this emergency call.
Arcadia's Paramedic Membership Program continues to accept enrollments from both Arcadia residents and businesses. For $42/year ($40 if paid in lump sum), all permanent residents of a member's household or permanent employees of a business in the city will receive emergency paramedic ambulance transportation without direct cost. The subscription program was first offered to Arcadia residents and businesses on December 1, 1994.
