Lancaster EMS

Lancaster EMS is looking to recruit volunteers to help provided a vital emergency service to the Lancaster area. We need EMTs to continue to provide cost efficient 24/7 coverage for medical emergencies. We are also looking for drivers to assist us. A driver would need to have or obtain an Emergency Medical Responder license. We will provide the training if needed.

Lancaster EMS operates (3) EMT-B service level ambulances. With the addition of flex staffing and additional ALS equipment and protocols, LEMS is able to include EMRs, paramedics, and nurses as part of the crew when available. LEMS stays busy with 911 calls and inter-facility transfers. We are on pace this year for over 800 calls for service.

To be able to work as an EMT, you need a Wisconsin EMT license. If you need to obtain a state license, the EMT training course is provided through Southwest Wisconsin Technical College. Please visit our website at lancasterems.org for the current training dates . The costs for the class along with books and testing are covered by LEMS. You will receive a stipend for calls and transfers. You will receive LEMS clothing to identify yourself on calls. You will join a great bunch of EMTs!!
