The Samson Volunteer Rescue Squad is a vital part of our
community, as well as outlying areas in the county. Together, the
volunteer fire department and rescue squad answer over 800
service calls yearly. They serve 193 square miles with 3,706
address points. The citizens of the City of Samson, as well as the
citizens in the surrounding coverage area, depend on them to
answer the call for service.
The Samson Volunteer Rescue Squad operates independently
without any financial support from the Geneva County
Commission, despite having the widest coverage area in the
county.
Samson’s Emergency Medical Services (EMS) provides
immediate medical care to those in need, including trauma care,
life support, and ambulance transportation to medical facilities.
In addition, they are present during search and rescue operations,
conducting search and rescue missions for missing persons or in
situations such as natural disasters, where individuals may be
trapped or lost.
Samson Rescue assists during natural disasters like floods,
earthquakes, and hurricanes by performing evacuations, providing
medical aid, and helping with recovery efforts.
Educating the public on safety practices, first aid, CPR, and
disaster preparedness to help prevent emergencies and
encourage self-sufficiency is also another benefit of the local
rescue team.
