She is also the supply officer and maintains the roster the rescue squad. An Advanced EMT and registered nurse, Scully teaches first aid, CPR and other advanced medical classes for District 7.
As a member of Lincoln Volunteer Fire Company Scully is recognized for her medical care skills and appreciated for the care and compassion with which she deals with her patients. She also makes sure that the Lincoln Volunteer Fire Co. membership maintains their CPR and other medical certifications.
In addition to all of this, she was appointed by the Lincoln selectboard and approved by the state of Vermont for the position of Lincoln Town Health Officer. This position requires the ability to handle many difficult situations including neighborhood complaints about problems with animals, septic systems and other health-related issues. The position requires a good negotiator who can handle each situation with grace and professionalism.
In a ceremony at the Bristol Legion Hall this past Saturday, Post 19 Commander Ron LaRose Mary Harrison of the Lincoln Volunteer Fire Co. presented Scully with a plaque honoring her service to the community.
