Martinsville Rescue Squad - (732) 469-1505

The Martinsville Rescue Squad serves, primarily the martinsville/ green knoll area and the central New Jersey area. It is made up of volunteers who help to save lives in the community. It's not only an organization but a community and a family.

The Martinsville Rescue Squad is a nonprofit organization that provides prompt and effective emergency first aid, rescue, and transport services to the sick and injured. We primarily serve residents, workers, and visitors to Martinsville and the Washington Valley section of Bridgewater in New Jersey, but we provide "mutual aid" to all neighboring areas whenever they need us. We are a 100% volunteer organization and we provide our services free of charge 24 hours a day every day of the year. Our operations are supported by donations from residents of the communities we serve.
The members of our squad are your friends and neighbors. They are volunteering so that when you need help, someone will be there. Why don't you volunteer too? There is a great sense of camaraderie among our members. We all share the work load so that it is not too demanding on any one of us. Every aspect of our business is performed by volunteers. So while we need trained volunteers to respond to medical emergencies, we also need volunteers to help run and manage the "back office" part of our business. If you think the time may be right to volunteer, check out our Volunteering page for more information.

New volunteers are always welcome! Volunteering is a rewarding and fulfilling experience and the time you give can have a direct impact on the quality of life of your family, friends, neighbors, and visitors. Please consider helping. We will provide all necessary training, equipment, and support.

Bridgewater Township provides incentives to area residents who volunteer for local rescue squads and fire departments. These incentives include a LOSAP plan, tuition reimbursement, and a waiver of certain Township fees. For details see the Bridgewater Emergency Services web page.

The Martinsville Rescue Squad is operated and managed 100% by volunteers. That means we need two types of volunteers. For operations we need volunteers to respond to area 911 calls. For business administration we need volunteers to help with recruiting, fund raising, recordkeeping, data entry, and more. It takes more volunteers to respond to area 911 calls 24 hours a day, 7 days a week than it takes for business administration, so we tend to place more emphasis on encouraging volunteers to help with 911 call response.
