EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES
OVERVIEW
Our career EMS division is stationed out of the Substation on Marsh Road and is comprised of three ambulances, two of which are staffed 24/7 by career personnel and one staffed during working hours. The Claymont Fire Company employs 20 full-time and part-time EMT's who answer over 4500 calls a year, answering a variety of basic and advanced calls with New Castle County Paramedics.
Averaging about 12 runs a day, our EMS personnel spend countless hours protecting the community and working with organizations such as New Castle County Paramedics, County Police and State Police.
EMS respond to every in-district medical call, motor vehicle accident and box alarm. Often, our EMS crews respond to assist neighboring jurisdictions such as Brandywine Hundred and Talleyville as well.
