Nearly 40 years ago, Riddle Hospital's EMS Unit was launched with one ambulance loaned by the Lima Ambulance Service to support fire companies in the surrounding communities. Now, Riddle Hospital's EMS Unit provides 24-hour emergency coverage in response to dispatched 911 calls for the following local municipalities: Concord, Middletown, Media, Newtown, and many others in the Delaware County region.
The award-winning service is currently relying on aging vehicles and needs to purchase two van-style ambulances and a special resource ambulance equipped to transport bariatric patients. Given the current healthcare fiscal environment, donations from our friends in the community for essential investments such as new ambulances at Riddle Hospital help us care for our patients in the most efficient, timely manner. Thank you for considering a donation to this key project.
