Northwest Rescue's Rockford Eastside station covers the city east of the Rock River, including the hospital corridor. Dispatch is answered 24 hours a day, every day of the year.

This station sits on the busiest side of the Rockford metro. Crews cover the city east of the Rock River along with the hospital corridor, which puts a unit within a few minutes of the facilities that call most often. Traffic and call volume are both higher on this side of the river, which is why we post a station here rather than running the area from headquarters.
