Pasquotank-Camden EMS
provides daily staffing for three ambulances 24 hours a day with an
additional 10 am to
10 pm peak demand crew to staff ambulances to answer 9-1-1
dispatched calls, provide transports, and cover standby requests and public
events. A non-emergency ambulance crew is available from 8 am to 5 pm,
Monday through Friday. Each primary advanced life support ambulance is staffed by two EMT's,
one of which must have the minimum certification level of EMT-Paramedic. Each of these 'teams' provide continuous, quality
pre-hospital emergency care to the residents of the two counties.
Over the past several years, Pasquotank-Camden
EMS has moved ambulance to outlying substations. Currently the
following EMS Station and Substations provide EMS coverage to the
residents of Pasquotank and Camden Counties:
- EMS Station 50 - Main
EMS Station and Administrative offices, Located next to Albemarle
Hospital (24 hr)
- EMS Station 4 - Located
in the Nixonton Volunteer Fire Department (24 hr)
- EMS Station 12 - Locate
in the Camden Volunteer Fire Department (10am - 10pm)
Pasquotank-Camden EMS utilizes first responders for coverage in the outlying
areas to decrease response times. We work in coordination with
other various county and city agencies, fire, sheriff and police
departments. We are also served by two air medical helicopters;
Nightingale Air Ambulance in Norfolk, VA, EastCare
Air Ambulance in Greenville,
NC as well as the United
States Coast Guard
from Air Station
Elizabeth City.
