Pella Community Ambulance encourages the community to learn about their life-saving service at an upcoming open house. Julia Evans with Pella Ambulance says a free-will donation meal, details about emergency medical services, tours, and activities for children will all be a part of the event. The open house will be held on Saturday from 3 to 6 p.m. at their location on Main Street. The Iowa Narcotics Officers Association “What You Don’t See” trailer will also be on site for parents to learn more about warning signs of drug use among teenagers. Pella Ambulance Director Greg Higginbotham says it was another record-breaking year for the service in 2018, and the community’s support is appreciated. Proceeds from the event will help Pella Ambulance upgrade their cots from manual to self-loading, a safety enhancement for patients and providers.
