We are always in search of responsible individuals who are committed to helping us serve the community.  We accept people from all walks of life and with various backgrounds of training.  It is understood that different members offer different skills, and we welcome you to look over the membership classes below to best determine where you’d fit in!

Regular (Active) Member

A Regular (Active) Member is a member who is currently an EMT (care provider) or wishes to become an EMT and actively participates in agency activities including, but not limited to, regular training and staffing of an ambulance as required by policy.

Cadet (Active) Member

A Cadet Member is a member who is currently an EMT or wishes to become an EMT and actively participates in agency activities including, but not limited to, regular training and staffing of an ambulance as required by policy.

President's Volunteer Service Award

We are proud to be a Certifying Organization for the President's Volunteer Service Award (PVSA).  This award, founded in 2003 by the President’s Council on Service and Civic Participation, recognizes the important role of volunteers in America’s strength and national identity. This award honors individuals whose service positively impacts communities in every corner of the nation and inspires those around them to take action, too.

The PVSA has continued under each administration, honoring the volunteers who are using their time and talents to solve some of the toughest challenges facing our nation.

Led by the AmeriCorps and managed in partnership with Points of Light, this program allows Certifying Organizations to recognize their most exceptional volunteers.
