Hamburg EMS was founded in 1950 as a volunteer organization with a simple but very important mission: to provide excellent emergency medical care to each community we serve.

Serving the Hamburg Community Since 1950

At the beginning, local volunteers dedicated their time and special skills to making sure residents across our service area had access to the medical services they need and deserve.

Growing Into Community Needs

Hamburg EMS kept evolving along with the world of emergency medicine. As medical training, equipment, and ambulance services improved, we too grew in our ability and knowledge to continue to provide high levels of care. We have evolved from a small volunteer organization to an organization capable of providing Basic Life Support and Advanced Life Support services throughout the region.

Our Ongoing Commitment to High-Quality Care

One thing has always been the same in all of our history, and that is our commitment to bringing the best service we can to our community. So that all of our patients get the quality care they deserve before they get to the hospital, we continue to invest in:

Professional Training
Modern Equipment
Certified Ambulances

It’s important to us that personnel and our entire organization as a whole follow state requirements and guidelines to maintain the highest standard of emergency medical services.
