Letter: Thank you to Bluffton EMS

We can’t thank the Bluffton EMS enough for their timely response in several scary situations over the past five years. The EMT’s have always been professional, thorough and comforting.

Rachel goes above and beyond and the care she gives is nothing short of exceptional.

When those unexpected things happen, it’s good to know we have a team of people ready to give their all in a time of need. Thank you, Bluffton EMS.

Rich and Melanie Montgomery
