Adams County Ambulance and EMS
is accepting applications for the positions of Reserve EMT-Basics
and Reserve EMT-Paramedics. These paid positions supplement the
full-time staff during extra duty, long distance transfers, and
regular shifts.
Application and wage
information is available online.
Originally
established as a branch of the Department of
Public Health, the Adams County EMTs and
Paramedics have been serving their community
since 1974. Each member of our staff is
committed to providing quality pre-hospital
care.
Adams
County EMTs and Paramedics staff five
ambulances throughout Adams County and
Quincy. They are prepared and equipped to
provide Advanced Life Support twenty-four
hours a day, seven days a week. Units 3A15
and 3A16 are stationed in Quincy and
primarily serve the southwest portion of
Adams County. 3A17, stationed in Camp Point
provides service mainly to the residents and
villages in northeast Adams County while
3A18 is stationed in Mendon and provides
service to residents and villages in
northwest Adams County. Southwest and
south-central Adams County is covered by
3A19 which is based in Liberty.
With
our units strategic located throughout the
county we can arrive on emergency scenes in
a more efficient manner and begin patient
care sooner.
The
Quincy/Adams County 9-1-1 Center receives
and dispatches calls for ambulance (EMS)
service. Callers play a very important role
in the emergency medical dispatch process.
They hold the key to a wealth of information
and can help care for the sick or injured
until EMTs and Paramedics can arrive. EMTs
and Paramedics along with the 9-1-1
dispatcher rely upon the caller to provide
crucial patient information in order to
begin caring for the patient quickly and
appropriately.
