- For Christmas, Southwest Ambulance sent a sick 8 year old boy home to be with his family in Oregon. Every year they provide transports from Medical facilities to people's homes so the sick can spend the holiday with their family. They even provide EMTs and Paramedics to watch over the ill in case an emergency occurs while they are home. Southwest Ambulance helps Christmas wishes come true The child, who was brought to Phoenix Children's Hospital two months ago to receive a special type of intravenous food needed to survive, found himself a long way from his new home with his custodial grandmother in Oregon. With Christmas just a few days away, Southwest Ambulance employee Terry Reilly learned that Joseph had only one item on his wish list, and that was to spend the holiday at home with his family. |
