Wildwood Crest - Wildwood Crest Volunteer Fire Co. is being prevented by the Wildwood Crest Rescue Squad from responding to EMS calls. Most NFPA and common recommendations on medical/rescue assignments, like cardiac arrests, recommend pit crew CPR involving early rescue from bystanders, and effective compressions by multiple providers including firefighters trained in medical interventions. Simply said, the FD is being excluded with no valid reason. On the contrary, the WC rescue squad responds to fire alarms in order to increase their call volume; there is no indication for EMS on fire alarm responses.
