Falck San Diego

Today we joined SD Project Heart Beat to donate emergency equipment to our friends at STAR/PAL. They run vital community programs that support local youth and foster positive relationships with law enforcement. The emergency kits will help keep kids safe both at their center and they'll go along on field trips. Happy to support this great organization!

Such a wonderful visit this week to Scripps Mercy Hospital Chula Vista’s Youth Summer camp. We got to meet some of our bright, talented future healthcare leaders. ♥️

Thank you to the Fourth District Seniors Center for inviting us to do outreach at their Juneteenth commemoration! We highly value our partnership with the center. Stop on by the first Fridays of the month to get your blood pressure checked by our Falck team. ❤️

Today is Juneteenth, Freedom Day!💛

Today and year-round, we recognize all our African-American EMTs for their hard work, dedication and faithful service to our community.

Out today at the Sharp EMERGE medical camp for teens. Great program to meet our future healthcare leaders!

Today is World Blood Donor Day!❤️

Donating blood is a crucial part of emergency services and essential to community health. Falck would like to thank all of the volunteers and donors for their life-saving gifts today!

Happy Pride Month!💜💙💛💚❤️

This Pride Month and year-round, Falck is celebrating all the contributions of our LGBTQ+ employees and the communities they serve!

We thank the County of San Diego for recognizing Falck and our community partner, Health Sciences High and Middle College, for our combined efforts on their Love Your ♥️ campaign. The first responder students at HSHMC partnered with us to bring life saving blood pressure screenings to the community.

This week we hosted Access2Jobs on a job shadow day at Falck HQ. Building partnerships with these vital community organizations that connect youth to employment opportunities is a win-win. We hope to see some of these talented young people joining our team soon!

Great job by our crews working this past weekend's Rock n' Roll Marathon! Falck sent 6 ALS ambulance crews plus supervisors who were on scene starting at 4 a.m.. We had 27 responses resulting in 10 transports and there were no ambulance resources that were pulled from the city for the event. Great job, and congrats to all the runners! 🎶🏃🏽‍♀️

Race day is officially underway here in Music City 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️
