If your answer to these questions was “yes,” you should consider joining the Lambertville-New Hope Ambulance & Rescue Squad (LNHARS) to become a trained Emergency Medical Technician or Rescue Technician.
The LNHARS is a group of ordinary people doing extraordinary things. When the radio sounds, we become a team of dedicated, unpaid professionals who serve our community and help those in need.
The LNHARS responds to over 1,800 emergency medical and rescue calls each year. Our organization counts on men and women of all ages and backgrounds to join together to respond to these emergencies.
