Our Fleet
Marion County Ems has a fleet of four modular style ambulances; these get rotated on a weekly basis to keep vehicle mileage down. Our fleet is comprised of International, Freightliner and Chevrolet chasis with an attached custom rear box. Ample room is available in each ambulance to treat and transport patients to the closet appropriate facility. MCEMS also a Dodge Van dedicated for out of town transfers that comfort patient and the employees.
Equipment
Over the past five years MCEMS has upgraded our stretchers, monitor/defibrillators and purchased state of the art mechanical CPR devices to assist and facilitate quick patient care. We are all very excited and very pleased with the new equipment purchased. Below are pictures of some of the new and innovative products someone might see in our ambulances.
