Ambulance Service

A common misconception is that ambulances are used only in “emergency” situations but much of the work done by ambulance service providers is in a non-emergency environment. MedFleet provides mainly transportation for patients who need to be moved from hospital to hospital or other facilities (interfacility) or who are discharged and returning home. We also serve as a mutual aid partner to our local county fire departments, ensuring they have back up resources in times of high call volume. In addition, we provide ALS and BLS ambulance medical standby for sporting events, 5Ks, during natural and other disasters, and other special events.

If you believe you or someone you are caring for is experiencing a life threatening medical emergency, you should always call 911 immediately.

Emergency ambulance service is needed when your health is in serious danger, and every second counts. Call 911 whenever you suspect someone experiencing a medical emergency.
