When you need an ambulance, minutes matter.  Our ambulances are directly linked and radio dispatched by the local 9-1-1 emergency dispatch centers.  The trained Emergency Medical Dispatcher will ask questions according to nationally recognized standards; then depending on the acuity of the illness or injury determines which resources are sent.
