Wise County EMS & Rescue

We’re excited to share the early impact our new ambulance station in Alvord is already having on emergency response in our service area.

Before the station opened, a recent call (same address) required 10 minutes and 50 seconds from the time the ambulance went enroute until arrival on scene. With the new station in service, a similar response was completed in just 1 minute and 45 seconds.

That’s a reduction of 9 minutes and 5 seconds, representing an 83.8% improvement in response time.

In emergency medicine, minutes matter. Faster response times mean quicker patient care, improved outcomes, and a higher level of service for the citizens we are privileged to serve.

This achievement reflects the vision and support of our elected officials and our continued commitment to providing the best possible emergency medical care to our community.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this project a reality. The results speak for themselves, and we’re proud to see the positive difference it is already making.
