Community Service

Rockingham recognizes the importance of providing community minded services and giving assistance to those in need. We do so with a dedicated spirit of community involvement and participation. Community service is part of our mission. As a public service, Rockingham Ambulance crews provide standby coverage for many community sponsored events such as high school football games and other civic events like fairs & festivals that take place on the Main Streets of Nashua and Manchester. Our ambulances and staff are a visible reminder at these events providing an extra level of comfort and assisting in the continual education of our citizens about EMS and the important role that Rockingham plays in the health of the community.

Rockingham stands by, as a public service, for hundreds of community events each year. Whether the Olympic torch is coming through town or a block party is taking place, Rockingham will provide the adequate crews and additional ambulances necessary to safely protect the citizens and visitors in our communities should a medical emergency occur.

VIP Visits

New Hampshire is a special place with our first in the nation primary. As a result we receive many visits from both the President and Vice President of The United States as well as other national figures. Rockingham helps medically protect these VIP's and the people that attend the events that are held for them. Watch for our ambulances and medics at these events and in the motorcades that safely take the VIP's throughout the entire state.
