| In 2001 an Ambulance was donated to the St. Peter the Apostle Parish in memory of Colin Flanagan from St. Albert’s School. |
| After having the ambulance reconditioned, all efforts involved shipping it to El Salvador. Finally, space on a freighter was donated and the long journey began. |
| The original ambulance was purchase with through the generosity of the people at St. Albert's Parish. |
- The original automatic transmission
did not last a year in the severe
mountain conditions. An additional
expense was soon felt converting it to
a manual transmission.
- Brake wear is a constant reminder of
the environment the ambulance
endures travelling down the mountain
"paths" to the nearest medical
facilities on the coast.
- Fuel consumption has been a
problem as prices soar.
- After five years of service it was time
to replace this workhorse.
| No patient is refused transportation because of their inability to pay. Each patient using the ambulance is asked to pay a $20 fee to support the operation of the ambulance service |
| See the replacement ambulance put into service in 2007 |
