Web Site. It is the mission of the Wolcott Volunteer Ambulance Association to provide medical aid and health education to the residents of the Town of Wolcott by responding to emergency calls for assistance and by educating the public with free or low-cost CPR and EMS training programs. Our staff provides this to the Town of Wolcott with minimal impact on taxpayers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-text-color has-medium-font-size\" style=\"color:#000000\">The Wolcott Volunteer Ambulance Association, Inc. was founded in May of 1973 by ten (10) dedicated and committed residents. These Charter Members are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-text-color has-medium-font-size\" style=\"color:#000000\">Jack Ahearn<br>David Methe<br>David Bernier<br>Mary Ostrander<br>Ronald Bruneau<br>Donald Schoeck<br>Bonnie Kennedy<br>Norman Stanchfield<br>Patrick Kennedy<br>Alice Regan<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-medium-font-size\" style=\"color:#000000\">Our organization is forever thankful to these dedicated founders who had the vision and foresight back in 1973, to establish a volunteer ambulance corps for the benefit of the Town of Wolcott. Without their hard work, dedication and tireless volunteer hours this association would never have existed. A valuable emergency service which responds to nearly 2000 emergency requests annually. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-medium-font-size\" style=\"color:#000000\">If you have had to use our medical services, we hope you are recovering well. You may receive a survey to evaluate our care. We would like to know how we can improve our services to you and the Town of Wolcott. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-medium-font-size\" style=\"color:#000000\">Thank you and all of our volunteers and staff for your continued support of WVAA. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-medium-font-size\" style=\"color:#000000\">Sincerely,<br>Bill<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thank you for visiting the Wolcott Volunteer Ambulance Association, Inc.
