Mission Statement
It is the mission of the Washington County Ambulance Service to provide the most professional and highly trained pre-hospital care to the clients as possible. Is our duty to increase public relations within Washington County as well as other local areas and state offices. We are to encourage the initial and continuing medical education of the volunteer staff and stay abreast of the ever-changing scopes of practice for our EMT's.
We strive to promote and foster better pre-hospital intervention for patients and families and work on trauma issues as they relate to our regional trauma advisory council. We take pride in our professional and our volunteer staff and will continue to upgrade our facilities and billing services to our patient base. We are dedicated to LEARN, LEARN, and LEARN and to keep an OPEN MIND about CHANGE.
