South Aberdeen EMS Seeking Volunteers for Search & Rescue Team

South Aberdeen EMS is searching for volunteers for their newly established Bayshore Search and Rescue Team.

The search and rescue team was established by South Aberdeen EMS after the volunteer organization realized there was no organized search and rescue team in the Central New Jersey area. 

Volunteers will be trained how to stay alive in a wilderness environment with or without equipment during all seasons and on various terrains. They will also be trained how to extract a patient from a wilderness environment, proper MEDEVAC procedures and how to conduct low angle rescues and swift water rescues.

Classes for Bayshore Search & Rescue will begin in December for potentail team members. Those interested in joining a SAR team in Monmouth County are encouraged to call 848-468-6735 and leave a name and email address. Then, information will be sent via email.

The classes will be held at 260 Church Street in Aberdeen.
