About Us:

We at Valle Ambulance District pride ourselves in being a clinically sophisticated and progressive service. The implementation of numerous clinical initiatives, including multi-lead ECG interpretation for the purpose of Cardiac Catheterization Lab activation from the field, Rapid Sequence Intubation, and one of the most comprehensive medication formularies in the state have resulted in tangible improvements to the care we deliver to our community.  In addition to these initiatives, we are proud to have ICU capable ventilators, medication infusion pumps, video laryngoscopes, mechanical CPR devices and many other valuable pieces of equipment on each and every ambulance.  We are proud to offer Critical Care Transport services, provided by our Critical Care Transport Paramedics, in addition to the traditional Advanced Life Support services, most often thought of when you see an ambulance.  

Our leadership team consists of the Chief of EMS, the Chief Medical Officer and three shift Captains who lead the day to day operations of each crew.  The administrative office is staffed by the Business Manager and the Billings and Claims Representative.  We have a mechanic who keeps our fleet of vehicles in working order.  The field staff consists of approximately 50 clinicians who staff 4 Advanced Life Support ambulances, every day.   

In today’s age of overwhelmed hospital emergency departments, we consider ourselves “pre-hospital clinicians” who just happen to provide emergency care outside of the hospital; in our community. We specialize in operating and delivering services at the critical juncture of public health and public safety. The compassion and dedication of our staff exemplifies our motto of “We’re Here For Life." 

Our mission has extended beyond emergency medical response. Valle Ambulance District has been actively involved in FEMA Deployments to help out our neighbors locally and nationally wherever help is needed. We also provide public information, injury prevention and education opportunities to keep our community safe.

In addition to the services we provide to the individuals in the community, we also provide clinical oversight to fire departments and law enforcement agencies so that they may function as Emergency Medical Response Agencies under our medical direction.  We furthermore provide clinical oversight to public access defibrillation sites throughout our district.   

Our Mission is to provide emergency and non-emergency care and transport of the sick and injured by competent and caring team members, to reduce morbidity and mortality, and to improve patient outcomes to the citizens and visitors of Valle Ambulance District.  We are committed to providing quality patient care 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
