We also partner with the Ashland Volunteer Rescue Squad. The rescue squad primarily provides emergency medical services in the greater Ashland community and is designated Company 16. Operating three advanced life support equipped ambulances and several support vehicles, we are happy to assist them with a number of paramedics and EMTs on our roster. Those interested in primarily providing EMS should reach out to AVRS at https://www.ashlandvrs.org/
