Welcome

Welcome to the Far Hills - Bedminster First Aid Squad website. We are the primary provider of Emergency Medical Services to Far Hills, Bedminster, Pluckemin, and Pottersville in Somerset County, New Jersey. Founded in 1941, we are a volunteer-led, non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation - not a division of any hospital or municipality. This means that our operational and capital costs are funded in large part by the generous response of the community to our annual fund drives. In addition to responding to residential medical calls for help, our volunteers also attend to people who are traveling through our area who need medical help. We ensure response to all 9-1-1 calls for emergency medical assistance 24x7, 365 days a year - we never close! Please feel free to contact us for more information on the squad, joining, or supporting!
