"The Emergency medical service is the youngest of the emergency services provided through local governments. Police protection is the oldest, dating back to elected constables in the mid 1800s. The Fire Department dates back to around 1900. The Emergency Medical Service was only started in the late 1900s. This report provides information about one local Emergency Medical Service (EMS), the joint service provided to Cottage Grove and Deerfield called the Deer-Grove Emergency Medical Service or DGEMS, given today's tendency to shorten titles"--P. 1.
