On April 7, 2003 OEMS delivered to the partners of Emergency Resource Management the birth of their new Company. Like any newborn entity, everyone wants to see it, but few want to embrace it. Well we’re here to tell you that we are now walking, talking and ready to run. We understand we were born at a time of uncertainty. Finances are what they are. Billing issues are facing new and challenging challenges. Yet with continued certainty are the daily challenges of fielding a crew for calls.

As we look into the future and prepare for growth, we understand the anxiety provoked by any need for change. With this change comes an additional concern that you will lose control over your service, and the direction will take. With strong input, cooperation and involvement in your system, we believe you can actually gain control and power over your organization. We are not trying to fragment or take over any system or town, we are simply trying to support and supplement your individual services. We invite you to continue to consider all your options and make an educated decision. Indecision and / or no decision right now can be just as bad as not showing for the 911 calls in the first place.

Challenging times require innovative thinking outside the box. So to schedule a brainstorming session , call us anytime. Let our many years of field and management experiences serve your needs. We’ll be happy to meet with you, your board or commission, First Selectman, etc. to discuss all options available to you.
