About Our Squad
For over 70 years the East Millstone First Aid Squad has proudly, faithfully and professionally provided First Responder Emergency Medical Services (EMS) to our friends and neighbors in Franklin Township, Millstone Boro and the surrounding areas.
As First Responders, we serve our community as an all-volunteer EMS agency, 100% supported by donations. Although our volunteer members are not paid, they meet the same training requirements the NJOEMS has for paid services. Since we were established in 1947 the area we serve has grown tremendously, as has our call volume. Our dedicated members, despite much personal sacrifice, are proud to have continuously served our community though the most difficult times including responding to the 9/11 attacks and, despite devastating damage to our building, through Hurricanes Floyd, Irene and Sandy.
We are dispatched by the Franklin Township Police Department for 911 EMS calls in Franklin Township and Somerset County Emergency Services Dispatchers for 911 EMS calls in Millstone Borough, and provide mutual aid to surrounding areas as requested. We are members of the EMS Council of New Jersey’s Fifth District.
We respond to more than 600 calls per year, more than half of those during the day. We put over 10,000 miles per year on our 100% donation paid for ambulances, and our members are proudly put in over 3,500 hours of service per year. Each year those numbers increase as our calls for service keep increasing.
Are you looking for a truly satisfying way to make a difference in people’s lives when they need it the most? Do you want to learn the skills to help save lives and know what to do in an emergency? We are always looking for new members to join us. We have a wonderful group of members and we participate in numerous community activities. Our members come from diverse careers, backgrounds and cultures and range from age 16 to retirees. You will develop a sense of belonging that comes from working as a team and make life-long friendships along the way.

East Millstone First Aid Squad: First Responders, 100% Volunteer, 100% Professional.
Our Members Make A Difference!
Neighbor helping neighbor. "Why we do it" is what sets us apart from the paid services. Our payments are often a hug, a wave at the supermarket, a heartfelt letter, or in person thanks. It's why we get up in the middle of the night to help someone. Knowing we helped our friends and neighbors when they needed it most is incomparably. We invite you to join us and see for yourself!
