Squad and Rescue Company’s working together

Tonight crews from stations 6-1 (Thorofare) and 6-2 (Verga) worked together to help remove an injured crew member from a ship on the Paradise Rd port. Under the command of Asst. Chief 6102 (W. Fanslau) Squad 613, as well as Rescue 628 assisted BLS 18 with removing an injured person aboard a ship that docked on the port at the end of Paradise Rd in West Deptford. Crews from both companies utilized a stokes basket to safely remove the patient from the ship, and was transported to an area hospital for further treatment. The rescue took just under an hour and a half to complete. Great team work by all.
