11/10/2026 | 1900 Hours – The Merion Fire Company of Ardmore is proud to congratulate THREE of our members on completing their National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians (NREMT) Initial Certification Course!

🎓 Congratulations to:

🚑 John Laurino

🚑 Tristan Thompson

🚑 John Trainor

These dedicated volunteers successfully completed more than 130 hours of Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) training, gaining the knowledge and hands-on skills needed to provide emergency medical care to patients in a wide range of situations.

The EMT course prepares students to assess patients, provide lifesaving interventions, stabilize injuries and illnesses, and safely transport patients experiencing everything from routine medical conditions to life-threatening emergencies.

🚒 Why is this important for our fire company?

Our firefighters are often among the first emergency responders to arrive on scene. Having members trained in emergency medical care strengthens our ability to assist patients, and support our EMS partners when every second counts.

Being a volunteer firefighter means more than responding to fire calls. It means dedicating hundreds of hours to training, continuing education, and developing the skills needed to serve our community.

👏 Please join us in congratulating John, Tristan, and John on this outstanding accomplishment!

Your dedication, hard work, and commitment to helping others make the Merion Fire Company of Ardmore proud!

Training today. Ready for tomorrow. Always here for our community. ❤️🚒🚑
