Daily, our crews do everything they can to promote the safety and well-being of our residents, most notably when nobody is watching.
Just watched an EMT from @BOSTON_EMS stop traffic to help an elderly woman in a wheelchair cross the street. Happy Sunday!

He created the FD EMS merger mess & now heβs shocked how bad things still are. Hello City Council, Mayor Adams, even the merger architect is saying itβs wrong. Itβs time to save NYβers & undo the merger. @NYCMayorsOffice @NYCSpeakerAdams @NYCCouncil

The city's life saving ambulance medics are being treated like zeroes with low pay, despite promises to provide them comparable pay with firefighters and other uniformed officers.

Thank you @Gigi4District1 for calling for this hearing. Our Union leadership team are prepared to work with the @BOSCityCouncil to ensure all residents get a timely, appropriate ambulance response during their time of need.
Iβve been receiving many calls from constituents re: emergency service staffing during the Sumner Tunnel closure. In early June, I put forth as lead sponsor a hearing order to discuss this and consider population growth in the coming years. 1/#bospoli

Thank you @ErinforBoston Our EMTs & Paramedics are working hard every day but need the support of our elected officials to address staffing and retention issues. We look forward to working with you and the @BOSCityCouncil
Today I called for renewed urgency around emergency services staffing levels, citing unacceptable risks to public health in all of Bostonβs neighborhoods resulting from a response system pressured to a dangerous extent. Read my statement here: https://t.co/Uz4MVuFdXG

Yesterday a visitor to City Hall suffered a massive heart attack. Thanks to quick, life-saving actions by BPD, City Hall Security and @BOSTON_EMS, the manβs life was saved. Today @MayorWu and @BOSCityCouncil praised all involved for the heroic response. #HeroesAll

Boston EMS EMTs and medics were treating five overdose victims when officers arrived. Three victims were transported to local area hospitals.
A 22-year-old male is under arrest on fentanyl charges after 1st responders found multiple overdose victims in Hyde Park early Sunday morning. Were it not for the professional response and timely administration of Narcan, those who ODβed would be dead.

This is becoming an everyday occurrence. Our providers are stretched thin, being asked to do more with limited resources. #Bospoli @BOSCityCouncil
