Lakewood – New Jersey State Fireman’s Mutual Benevolent Association (FMBA) Local 98 donated several video baby monitors for Ocean County Hospitals, including Monmouth Medical Center Southern Campus (MMCSC). “Our members respect and are supportive of the medical professionals who are serving on the front lines, battling the Covid-19 and caring for the patients suffering with the effects of this illness,” explains Fire Marshal Raymond Van Marter. “We became aware that the hospitals needed theses monitors to assist in patient care. FMBA Local 98 was in a position to help in a small way and they took action.”
“The Ocean County Fire Marshal’s goal is always to keep the residents and visitors of Ocean County safe, typically through fire safety inspections, supporting our local fire departments on fire scenes or investigating the cause of a fire,” continues Van Marter. “This time it is by doing our part to support medical professionals by aiding in their care of coronavirus patients.”
FMBA Local 98 represents the full-time uniformed members of the Ocean County Fire Marshal’s Office. Many of our members know or have relatives that are nurses or other hospital professionals and we are proud to do our part to support them in their time of need.
