A BLS ambulance is staffed with two certified EMTs and is capable of handling basic emergencies such as falls, fractures, bleeding control, heat/cold emergencies, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, allergic reaction, overdose as well as CPR/AED. For patients requiring advanced care, the BLS ambulance crew will request a Paramedic and may begin transporting the patient to the hospital.

An ALS ambulance is staff with two certified providers, including at least one Paramedic, and represents our highest level of care. ALS ambulance crews provide advanced care including IV therapy, additional medications, Cardiac monitoring, 12-lead EKG interpretation, Cardiac pacing/cardioversion, advanced airway/respiratory care, and much more. ALS ambulances are essentially an emergency department on wheels, offering much of the same care.
