Summary
Community paramedics Tracy Farmer and Rob Arrett described the program's broader work—gap-refilling visits, opioid stabilization, monthly CPR/BLS classes ($50), and how residents can sign up for services and receive free File of Life packets.
Flagler County community paramedics described the scope of their program and how residents can access training and services.
A community paramedic said the program "tries and fill all gaps in health care throughout the community," listing activities from notifying next of kin to opioid stabilization and social service referrals.
Paramedics said they offer CPR classes the first Saturday of every month at the county Emergency Operations Center; the course is a four-hour BLS provider course with a $50 fee. The program's training sign-up appears on the county site at www.flaglercounty.gov/fcfr and staff also accept phone registrations at (386) 313-4260.
The team reiterated that they will lead distribution of the File of Life packet and deliver kits at no charge to residents who request them; they also offered assistance completing paperwork during delivery.
The paramedics who appeared on the podcast were identified as Tracy Farmer and Rob Arrett; the recording does not assign individual speaker turns to specific statements in the broadcast, so quotes from paramedics are attributed in the article to "a community paramedic" when the transcript did not name which individual made the remark.
