We The Windham Ski Patrol: This group of dedicated people works hard to keep the public safe at the Windham Mountain Ski Resort. You will find us patrolling the mountain from open to close seven days a week during ski season. Regardless of conditions, we are out on the hill inspecting equipment, snow, and grooming conditions, looking for hazards, helping injured patrons, and promoting safe skiing and riding. All our Patrollers are members of the National Ski Patrol. We receive extensive training in Outdoor Emergency Care, a specialized form of First Aid similar to Emergency Medical Technician training, but with additional emphasis on outdoor sports injuries. We also have an equally important Safety Skier and Terrain Park staff who assists in many tasks on the mountain to reassure further our guests' safety, which is an invaluable service. Many of our Patrollers, Safety Skiers, and Terrain Park staff are also certified Emergency Medical Technicians, Nurses, Paramedics, or Medical Doctors. Our NYSDOH Advanced Life Support First Aid Room, located on the first floor in the Base Lodge East, is open whenever the mountain is open to the public. The Advanced Level First Aid Room is staffed with a minimum of one Advanced Emergency Medical Technician with a New York State Department of Health, Paramedic level certification. AEMT-Paramedics can provide advanced treatment modalities, including endotracheal intubation, cardiac-related emergencies, intravenous therapy, medication administration, and a higher level of patient assessment to determine the severity of an injury and adequately choose the ultimate transport/treatment regimen. Together with all levels of emergency training and all facets of the Windham Ski Patrol, we are all making sure that you will receive the best care in an unlikely case of an injury, and all the right decisions will be made to ensure your welfare and ultimately your continued health. Ski safe and enjoy our mountain.
