Amherst County Public SafetyOur dedicated EMT/FFs and Paramedic/FFs respond to over 5,000 calls to service each year. Calls originate from areas in both urban and rural settings, giving our providers the opportunity to work in a fast-paced environment with the ability to develop their patient care skills transporting critical patients over long distances. We utilize Zoll monitors, a Hamilton T1 ventilator, POC Ultrasound, and IV pumps to provide the best care to our patients. Coupled with a progressive Medical Director and agency-specific protocols, Amherst County Public Safety is a premiere EMS organization in the Blue Ridge region. We also partner with the Amherst County volunteer fire departments for training and call response. Our staff are cross-trained in firefighting operations and can assist where needed on the fireground. We hold quarterly department-wide training and alternate the topics each quarter between firefighting/rescue and EMS.
