Area residents interested to learn more about the state of Emergency Medical Services (EMS) in Iowa, are encouraged to attend a free, special meeting next week, in Harlan. Shelby County Emergency Management Coordinator Bob Seivert reports the meeting, featuring Bremer County Emergency Manager Kip Ladage, will be held at the C.G. Therkildsen Activity Center in Harlan (706 Victoria St.) beginning at 7-p.m. on Thursday, Feb. 1st.

Ladage, along with two associates will be driving here from Waverly, Iowa to talk about Emergency Medical Services in the State of Iowa.  Many people across the state have listened to the presentation Ladage is bringing to Shelby County.  There is no charge to attend. They only ask the public to show up, and listen to what is happening to EMS across the state.

Seivert says Ladage’ presentation is in high demand and may answer some questions for those hearing about the state of EMS in Iowa.
