Marlinton Rescue Squad would like to recognize its volunteer members who, over the past year, responded to a total of 367 calls.  This number is down significantly from years past, thanks to the valuable help received from Pocahontas Memorial Hospital’s OUR Ambulance Service.  Marlinton Rescue and OUR Ambulance split up the 911 response coverage during the weekdays, with OUR Ambulance covering from 7 a.m. – 5 p.m. weekdays when Marlinton’s volunteers need to be at their regular jobs. The volunteers of Marlinton Rescue respond to 911 calls for EMS after 5 p.m.

Marlinton Rescue Squad has recently put online a live audio stream of the Pocahontas County Sheriff, Fire, and EMS dispatch.

This new addition will give anyone with access to a computer and the Internet the ability to monitor dispatch radio traffic without neccessarily needing to have a radio/pager with them.

The stream is embedded here on our site at marlintonrescue.com/scanner and a direct link to the scanner feed can be found at marlintonrescue.com/scanner/feed.
