The Town of Mamaroneck Ambulance District was established in July 1994 by the Town and the Village of Larchmont and Mamaroneck to coordinate ambulance services for the tri-municipal district. Basic Life Support Services are provided by the volunteers of the Larchmont/Town of Mamaroneck Volunteer Ambulance Corps (VAC), and the Village of Mamaroneck Emergency Medical Services (EMS). Part-time paid paramedics provide advanced life support care in coordination with the Volunteer corp.

Every 911 call for emergency medical assistance is received by the local Police Department which assigns a Police Officer to respond, and immediately alerts the respective Ambulance Corps. The ambulance responds with a paid certified Paramedic and volunteer Emergency Medical Technicians who are able to provide lifesaving medical care at the scene. Training for all paramedics and EMTs is ongoing and they must re-certify every 3 years.

The Ambulance District, VAC and EMS participated in cooperative training programs for Advanced Cardiac Life Support, Pediatric Advanced Life Support, hazardous Materials Awareness, and Infectious Disease. The Ambulance District has been actively participating in the development of the Town's Emergency Management Plan and the continuation of a First Response program with the Town Fire Department.

New Volunteers are always welcome at VAC or EMS and many training programs are provided without cost. IF you are interested in becoming a volunteer, call 381-7803 for further information.
