Mary Wilson-Trider, CEO of both Carleton Place and Almonte hospitals is thanking the Mississippi Mills Fire Department for its action in snuffing a fire this morning at the Almonte Ambulance Base.
She’s also thanking LCPS paramedics for their initiative as they were able to empty the Paramedic Base-quickly removing all vehicles, then evacuating after the fire was detected at 7AM.
There are no injuries. The cause of the fire is being investigated.
This afternoon some crews will be deployed out of the Carleton Place Ambulance Base, while others will remain mobile in Almonte.
