We are Teaneck's only emergency ambulance service. All our members are volunteers, and serve without pay. We respond to over 3000 emergency calls a year and routinely save lives and reduce suffering by rapid response and application of Basic Life Support skills. When you join us, you will become part of a well organized, well prepared team that will count on you as a valued member.

To become a member, you must be at least 15½ years of age, in good health, able to lift, and capable of physical exertion. All members must be available to spend a minimum of 4 hours per week on duty, in uniform, at our headquarters. No previous training is necessary to join; however, you will be required to become a state certified Emergency Medical Technician within 9 months of joining. We will help you obtain training and assist you in utilizing state funds to cover the cost of your training. You will be given plenty of supervision and assistance to ensure that you become a competent and confident EMT.

Men and women of all races, religions, ethnic groups and sexual orientation are invited to join. Out-of-town residents are welcome, provided that they are available to serve their 4 hours during ONE day shift a week any time between 7 AM and 7 PM, or are able to sleep here one night a week between 11 PM and 7 AM.
