Vermont's Emergency Medical Services system – or EMS – responds to medical emergencies daily. EMS is an integrated system for emergency medical treatment and transportation of sick and injured patients. The Vermont Office of Emergency Medical Services works on behalf of Vermonters to ensure that the EMS system is adequately equipped and prepared to provide the best out-of-hospital emergency care possible. There are nearly 170 ambulance and first responder agencies in the state and approximately 3,000 licensed emergency medical service (EMS) practitioners and over 400 Vermont Emergency First Responders.
