🎃🚑 TRUNK or TREAT and THOMPSON VALLEY EMS! 🍬👻

Who says ambulances are only for emergencies? This weekend, ours came stocked with candy, smiles, and a whole lot of Halloween spirit!

Our TVEMS crews had SO much fun celebrating Trunk or Treat with our Northern Colorado communities on Friday and Saturday!

We saw some fantastic costumes, met some adorable little ghosts and goblins, handed out plenty of treats, and enjoyed every opportunity to connect with the families we are so proud to serve.

To everyone who stopped by to say hello, shared a kind word, or took a moment to thank our crews, please know how much your kindness and continued support mean to us. We hear you, we appreciate you, and we never take that support for granted.💙

We absolutely LOVE our Northern Colorado communities! Whether we're responding to an emergency or handing out Halloween candy, being part of your lives and your neighborhoods is what makes serving this community so special.

Thanks for making our weekend such a TREAT! 🎃💙🚑

🍺 B**r. Brats. And...donuts?! 🍩

Nothing says Oktoberfest quite like b**r, brats, German food, music, community fun...and apparently a well-timed donut break for the EMS crew. 😄

TVEMS was proud to support the 2026 Berthoud Oktoberfest this past Saturday at Berthoud Town Park, helping provide medical coverage while our community came together for one of Berthoud’s favorite fall traditions.

Events like this are one of our favorite parts of serving Northern Colorado. We get to be there when our community gathers, celebrate alongside our neighbors and, of course, make sure help is close by if someone needs us.

A big thank you to the Berthoud Chamber event organizers and everyone who helped make Oktoberfest another great community event.

🍩🚑 Serving the community is serious business. The donuts? Also taken very seriously.

🚑🍼 Some calls you never forget.

At Thompson Valley EMS, we never quite know what the next 911 call will bring. We’re here for our community on its hardest days, its scariest days, and, every once in a while, its very best days. ❤️🫶

Yesterday morning was definitely one of those days.

While transporting an expectant mom to the hospital, it became pretty clear that their newest little passenger had other plans. Our crew pulled off I-25, and right there in the back of a TVEMS ambulance, they helped welcome a beautiful new baby into the world!

To this wonderful family, thank you for allowing us to be part of such an incredibly special moment in your lives. It was truly our honor to care for you and to play a small part in your family’s story.

And to our TVEMS crew who suddenly added “roadside delivery team” to yesterday’s assignment: outstanding work! Your skill, compassion, and calm under pressure represent the very best of EMS. 👏🚑

Welcome to the world, little one! You certainly know how to make an entrance. 💙🩷

👟 Step Safely Every Day

Your shoes do more than complete an outfit. They can also help protect you from slips, trips, and falls.

Before heading out, give your footwear a quick “sole-search”:

✅ Choose supportive shoes that fit securely
✅ Look for non-slip soles with good traction
✅ Avoid walking in socks on smooth floors
✅ Replace shoes when the tread, heels, or support begin to wear out

Shoes that are loose, worn, or slippery can make it harder to stay steady. A supportive, well-fitting pair can help you move with greater confidence.

Today’s challenge: Check the shoes you wear most often. Is it time to replace them?

As our Fall Prevention Month messaging comes to a close, remember that small choices can make a meaningful difference in protecting your mobility and independence.

👓 See Clearly. Move Safely.

Good vision and the right medication routine can play an important role in preventing falls. Changes in eyesight, poor lighting, and medication side effects such as dizziness or drowsiness can make it harder to move safely and confidently.

A few simple steps can help:

👁️ Schedule regular eye exams and update your glasses as prescribed
💡 Keep stairways, hallways, bathrooms, entryways, and outdoor walkways well-lit
🌙 Use nightlights in bedrooms and bathrooms to improve visibility after dark
🔦 Replace burned-out bulbs promptly and consider brighter lighting in higher-risk areas
💊 Review your medications with your doctor or pharmacist
🩺 Ask whether any medications may cause dizziness, drowsiness, or balance problems

Have you had an eye exam this year? If not, now is a great time to schedule one!

Partnership looks good under the Friday night lights! 🚑🚒🏈

Last week, Thompson Valley EMS was honored to stand alongside our partners at Loveland Fire Rescue Authority during the Loveland High School vs. Thompson Valley High School football game. Together, our agencies joined our law enforcement partners, the schools, and the community in commemorating the 25th anniversary of September 11 and honoring the lives lost, the sacrifices made, and the first responders who continue to serve.

We are grateful to both schools for inviting us to participate in such a meaningful evening. Whether responding to an emergency or supporting a community event, TVEMS and LFRA share a commitment to serving and caring for the Loveland community.

Congratulations to Loveland High School on the win, and thank you to both teams for a great game! 🏈

Different uniforms. One team. One community. ❤️

Twenty-five years ago, our nation experienced a loss so profound that time has not diminished its weight.

On September 11, 2001, thousands of people left home expecting an ordinary Tuesday. They were parents, spouses, children, friends, and coworkers. Far too many never returned.

In the midst of unimaginable fear and devastation, firefighters, law enforcement officers, EMS professionals, and countless civilians moved toward others who needed help. Many gave their lives. Others carried the physical and emotional impact of that day for years afterward.

Today, we remember every life lost, every family forever changed, and every first responder who answered the call.

We also honor those who continue to serve today. The uniform may represent fire, law enforcement, or EMS, but behind it is a person who has chosen to step forward on someone else’s worst day. That service carries sacrifice, responsibility, and a deeply human cost.

Twenty-five years later, may we continue to remember not only how many we lost, but who they were, how courageously people responded, and how strongly our nation came together.

We will never forget.🚑🚒🚓
