The
purpose of the Rescue Squad is to
provide no-cost, exceptional emergency service to Cannon County by
recruiting, retaining and managing a corps of enthusiastic,
professionally trained volunteers to staff heavy rescue vehicles
outfitted with cutting edge technology.
One of the most common jobs asked of
the Rescue Squad crewmembers is using hydraulic rescue tools (aka Jaws of Life) to extricate
patients trapped in vehicles after accidents or trapped in
industrial machinery.
Besides responding to emergencies and
keeping the equipment operational, our biggest effort is training.
Our members undergo intensive training annually year. We also
maintain a continuing education program to keep everyone from the
chief to the newest volunteer current with the latest techniques..
The
Cannon County Rescue Squad Chief is Michael Underhill. Agency offices are located:
618 Lehman St.
Woodbury,
TN 37190
