Our Fleet
Our current fleet consists of 47 ambulances, 4 ALS Supervisor Units, 3 Field Support vehicles, 2 Bariatric Units, a fully equipped MCI (Multi-Casualty Incident) unit, 2
ALS Hardrock style mountain bikes, and even an EMS ‘golf cart’.
We believe the key to maintaining a superior fleet begins before a wheel turns, by focusing our attention to detail placed on Purchasing the highest quality vehicles, selecting the most qualified maintenance resources, evaluating and choosing only the highest quality outside vendors, and providing driver education and training for its field personnel.
Medic Ambulance Service takes the preventive maintenance of its vehicles very seriously. Daily, the SSTs check all fluid levels, belts, and tires, performing a visual bumper-to-bumper inspection. The electrical components and safety components are also checked prior to any ambulance being designated an on-duty ambulance.
If any mechanical problem is noted that prevents the vehicle being availa
ble for field use, the senior crew member is responsible for notifying the shift supervisor of the unavailable status, presenting a completed maintenance request form to the shift supervisor. The maintenance request form and notification/documentation procedure is used when a vehicle is brought in before or at shift end. Crew members remain with any vehicle requiring maintenance until that maintenance is completed or the unit is removed from service and the crew is reassigned to another vehicle. Secondary to these checks is the routine and regularly scheduled preventive maintenance that occurs for every Medic ambulance. Over the last several decades, Medic Ambulance Services historical experience with ambulance performance and the life of ambulance parts has produced accurate analysis of when parts will need to be replaced. Using this information, Medic has developed an aggressive preventive maintenance schedule that anticipates parts replacement well in advance of potential failures.
Medic’s current fleet maintenance program, maintenance, and parts replacement schedules reflect replacement at approximately 75% of the useful life.
