Last night around 2115 hours, Whitehouse Rescue was dispatched to a motor vehicle collision. While en route, the call was upgraded to an entrapment, adding Readington Fire and Three Bridges Fire to the response.
Upon arrival, BLS 2251 and BLS 2253 began assessing two patients entrapped in separate vehicles. BLS 2253, Heavy Rescue 225, and Squad 32 worked on stabilization and extrication of one occupant, while BLS 2251, Three Bridges Fire, and Readington Fire stabilized the second vehicle and removed the second patient.
Both patients were transported by Whitehouse Rescue with Hunterdon Health Paramedics to a local trauma center by ground. NorthSTAR was unavailable due to weather conditions.
Recently, all Readington agencies trained together on a school bus accident drill that emphasized coordination and resource management while handling multiple high-priority tasks within the same incident. That teamwork and preparation were evident during this incident.

Tonight, our crews had the incredible opportunity to reunite with Robert — a former patient who went into cardiac arrest during a soccer game at Summer Road Park back in August.
Thanks to the quick actions of bystanders and first responders, Robert regained a pulse before arriving at the hospital. His recovery is a powerful testament to the life-saving impact of teamwork, training, and CPR.
Robert and his family visited our station and generously brought food to share with the crew members who helped save his life. It was an emotional and humbling evening for everyone involved.
We also learned more about the amazing group of bystanders who jumped into action — including retired law enforcement, nurses, and even a commercial airline pilot. Their combined training and willingness to step in made all the difference. They started CPR and rescue breaths until Readington Police Officers Ramos and Donovan delivered the first AED shock.
Shortly after, Whitehouse Rescue Captain Waseleski and FF/EMT Levison arrived, continued CPR, and administered a second AED shock — that’s when Robert regained a pulse and began breathing on his own. Hunterdon County Communications and Hunterdon Health MICU also played a critical role in Robert’s care.This was an incredible team effort from start to finish.
This moment serves as a powerful reminder of how important it is to learn CPR. In an emergency, every second counts — and the actions taken in the first few minutes can truly be the difference between life and death. Whether you sign up with us or another organization, learning CPR saves lives!
We’re so grateful to see Robert doing well — and honored to have been part of his story. Pictured below is Robert, his family and everyone involved in his rescue!
Remember these three? They took their EMT course this summer and were happy to announce all three have passed! Congratulations to EMTs Mohareb, Kumar and Vandal!
