EMS

Emergency medical services delivery and funding models.

What the issue is

Emergency medical services in New Jersey municipalities are delivered through volunteer squads, paid staff, shared services, hospital-based providers, or a combination of these.

Why it matters locally

EMS availability and response times affect resident safety, and staffing models have direct budget implications.

How the Township Committee can influence it

The Township Committee funds and contracts for EMS services, approves shared service agreements, and supports volunteer organizations.
