It has a 30 horse power motor and rescue equipment on board. The boat responds to water rescues and always stays inflated on a trailer able to be towed by ambulance or by four wheel drive. The four wheel drive responds to snow calls, back country rescue and any other specialty calls where a smaller vehicle is necessary. All equipment is purchased through donations from the public, no Municipal moneys go to the Squad for this equipment. Each year the Squad attempts to put money away for it's future through a serious budget.
All equipment is kept in meticulous shape and checked both in the morning and at night shifts.
Our vehicle colors are white with an orange stripe along the side. The Princeton First Aid And Rescue Squad is not affiliated with the Princeton University, but is the primary squad for Princeton Borough, Princeton Township and Princeton University. Our border Squads, West Windsor, Plainsboro, Lawrencville, Kingston, Montgomery, and Hopewell are well maintained organizations who assist us in case of a multiple incident and we intern help them should they need our assistance. As we are all EMTs, it is not unusual for us to work well together and to train mutually to keep our certifications up to date. An EMT-B is the standard level of Emergency Medical Technician program in NJ which allows an EMT to give certain medications to the patient.
