LCAD paramedics Ben, Vaughn, Devin and Captain Leslie, with LCAD Explorer Nichole, spent their morning teaching life saving CPR and First Aid to staff members at Peanuts Gang Learning Center!
For our crew members, the dedication to helping others goes beyond their scheduled shifts- these paramedics, along with many others, volunteer their time to teach in hopes that our patients will receive bystander care as soon as an emergency is recognized. LCAD currently operates 7 ambulances with a coverage zone of 640 square miles, our hope is to educate our community members for instances where we have an extended response time.
If you are interested in learning CPR or First Aid for yourself, your company or a group please send a message and we will be in contact!

The ambulance district has joined several others in the St. Louis area that have started a new program called S.T.A.R.S. — Special Need Tracking and Awareness Response System.
The program is for special needs patents especially under the age of 18 and allows the district to be aware of any medical conditions it may encounter when responding to an emergency call.
The S.T.A.R.S. program was founded a few years ago by Shelby Cox, EMS liaison for Cardinal Glennon Children’s Medical Center, and Tricia Casey, a paramedic with Rock Township Ambulance District. Once our district attended a meeting and learned more about the program, our administrators and paramedics agreed it would be beneficial to local families.
To learn more information about the S.T.A.R.S. Program, contact Battalion Chief Janet Norton, Lincoln County Ambulance District STARS Coordinator, at 636-528-8488 ext. 306 or [email protected] or fill out the form below and we will contact you.
