Bruce County is inviting the public to attend a ribbon cutting ceremony on Tuesday to welcome the new Paramedic Service Headquarters in Port Elgin.
Taking place on June 18th at 1pm at 1241 MacKenzie Road, an event will take place shortly after the ribbon cutting with a tour of the facility, tour an ambulance and community paramedic vehicles and learn hands on CPR techniques.
Construction of the headquarters began in June 2022 with an investment of $9 million for the 3-bay triple deep paramedic station, paramedic simulator lab, meeting rooms and two double head EV charging stations.
Bruce County Warden Chris Peabody says this facility is a key long-term investment in emergency services for our region, ensuring that our County Paramedics are fully equipped with the training tools they need to deliver emergency care and valuable community para-medicine services for Bruce County residents.
