LYME, CT (August 12, 2014) Recently retired and looking for a way to give back? Or perhaps interested in a possible Emergency Response career? Lyme Ambulance, one of Connecticut’s last remaining no-fee, all volunteer ambulance services needs you, and has funds to reimburse volunteer Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) or Emergency Medical Responder (EMR) training expenses.

“Our policy is to reimburse the training expenses incurred by a new member, once that member has been both certified and has demonstrated a commitment by being an active Responder with Lyme Ambulance for 6 or more months,” explains Carl Clement, Lyme Ambulance Chief of Service. “If the volunteer is serious, it’s a win-win for everyone involved.”

If you have a sincere interest in the personal satisfaction gained from helping others in time of need, learning new skills that could save a life or possibly opening an opportunity for a new career, write to:
