Citizens’ Ambulance Service has a separate division responsible for non-emergency medical transport services.  Citizens’ Transport Service utilizes ambulances for non-emergency transfers. 

 

Additionally, Citizens’ maintains six (6) wheelchair vans and four (4) walk-on vans that provide transportation to and from medical and dental appointments, hospital discharges, and various other medically related requests.

Citizens’ Ambulance Service promotes participation on its Bike Team.  The Bike Team is utilized for community events such as 5K run/walks, local fairs, and festivals.  Participants are EMTs and Paramedics that are equipped with Basic and Advanced Life Support (BLS and ALS) medical equipment, and can maneuver through crowds and through terrain where an ambulance would have difficulty reaching and providing emergency care quickly.

 

Citizens’ Ambulance Service provides ALS or BLS staffed ambulances for various standby services.  An ambulance can be contracted for community and school activities and sporting events.  To request standby services or for additional inquiries, contact our Public Relations director, Claire Hogan at 724-349-5511 or at chogan@asmgt.com.
