MERCY FLIGHT IS BRINGING SOMETHING NEW TO WESTERN NEW YORK EMS!

🚨 ATTENTION WESTERN NEW YORK EMS, FIRE DEPARTMENTS, FIRST RESPONDERS, EDUCATORS, AND EMS INDUSTRY PROFESSIONALS! 🚨

Something BIG is coming to Buffalo in 2027, and Mercy Flight is inviting the entire emergency services community to be part of it!

For the first time ever, Mercy Flight is hosting its “WHEN MINUTES MATTER” Northeast EMS Conference, bringing together emergency medical professionals, educators, equipment vendors, corporate partners, and first responders for two days of hands-on education, demonstrations, networking, and teamwork.

Mercy Flight is putting the emphasis where it belongs: REAL SKILLS, REAL TRAINING, AND THE PEOPLE WHO ANSWER THE CALL!

❤️ A MESSAGE FROM ERIE COUNTY BLOTTER TO OUR WESTERN NEW YORK EMS FAMILY

Every single day, throughout Western New York, dedicated EMTs, paramedics, firefighters, dispatchers, flight crews, and emergency medical professionals answer calls that can change someone’s life forever.

Many are volunteers. Others have dedicated their careers to emergency medicine. Regardless of the patch on their sleeve or the agency they represent, they share one common mission: helping people when they need it most.

We know that emergency medical care doesn’t stop at the back doors of an ambulance. It begins with education, training, preparation, and the ability to work together when the pressure is on.

And when minutes matter, those skills can mean everything.

At Erie County Blotter, we are proud to help spread the word about Mercy Flight’s first-ever EMS conference and the educational opportunities it will bring to our region.

TO EVERY FIRE CHIEF, EMS CAPTAIN, EMT, PARAMEDIC, INSTRUCTOR, AND EMERGENCY SERVICE LEADER IN WESTERN NEW YORK:

🚑 Share this with your agency!

🚁 Tag your partners and fellow first responders!

🎤 Encourage experienced educators to submit speaker proposals!

🏢 Help connect Mercy Flight with vendors, businesses, and corporate sponsors who support our emergency services community!
