Skyhook
Every year Niagara's highly trained professional paramedics respond to calls involving the Niagara Escarpment and the Niagara Gorge. Paramedics trained in Skyhook Response can be tethered to a Fire Fighter, in an effort to get advanced medical assistance to patients who have suffered an emergency in the gorge.
Bike Paramedic Unit
In 2002 the Bike Medic program became a permanent addition to the Paramedic response in Niagara Falls. Two Primary Care Bike Paramedics work 12 hour shifts from 11am-11pm, carrying all equipment to provide advanced patient care.
CBRNE Team
Niagara's Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and Explosive (CBRNE) medics are an integral part of the regional response team, capable of donning Level A, B, and C protective gear.
Kubota Response Unit
The Kubota All Terrain Vehicle (ATV) unit is deployed when difficult terrain makes accessing a person impossible for standard vehicles, ensuring safe extraction from remote areas.
