More than just another ambulance company, Cumberland Goodwill EMS is a growing, community-driven service. We're training the next generation of lifesavers, expanding our care to new areas through a new southern station, and helping bring a new standard of excellence to emergency medical care in the greater Carlisle area. Our nationally accredited team believes you deserve care from a service that not only meets bare minimums but instead aims to constantly improve itself.
Our Carlisle EMS academy had a record-breaking year, training more basic and advanced emergency medical technicians than ever before and helping to solve the workforce shortage plaguing EMS nationwide. Our EMS operations did more too. We launched a new bike team, added two additional ambulances, purchased new patient care equipment like upgraded ventilators, and added additional heart monitors and CPR chest compression devices to help manage increases in volume. Overall, more than 15 new providers have joined our ranks since June alone. We're already growing, but we need your help to help more people!
By purchasing an ambulance membership, you're supporting us with these necessary upfront costs. Every membership bought ensures that when you call 911 in our area, a well-trained, well-equipped provider from our service can be ready to respond. In return, members see a 50% reduction in out-of-pocket expenses on medically necessary ambulance services that may remain after the bill is submitted to insurance or Medicare. It's important to note, this is not a replacement for health insurance, but rather a way we can give back to the people in the community who help us help others.
Every membership helps us cover more ground—literally. Whether it's equipping new vehicles, staffing expanded coverage areas, or training the next wave of emergency responders, your support makes it possible. Cumberland Goodwill EMS is committed to helping more people, more effectively, every day. Join us in building a stronger, safer community— become a member today.
