Mamaroneck EMS

What Mamaroneck EMS does

Mamaroneck Emergency Medical Service (MEMS), operating as Mamaroneck Village EMS, is a 501(c)(3) non-profit volunteer emergency medical services organization founded in 1973 and headquartered at 220 North Barry Avenue Extension, Mamaroneck, NY. It provides 24/7 pre-hospital emergency medical care, including Advanced Life Support (ALS) and Basic Life Support (BLS), to the Village of Mamaroneck, Rye Neck, and surrounding communities in Westchester County, covering a district population of approximately 19,131 residents across 55 miles of road, 9 miles of coastline, 14 parks, beaches, and nature trails. The organization handles approximately 1,800 emergency calls and treats nearly 1,500 patients per year, with staffing provided by over 80 active volunteer members operating through structured EMT certification, driver training, attendant, and Junior Corps (ages 16-17) programs.

The operational fleet consists of four specialized vehicles: two ALS/BLS transport ambulances (68-ALPHA-1 built in 2017 and 68-ALPHA-2 acquired in 2023), one John Deere Gator UTV (68-UTILITY-1) for off-road access to trails and parks added in 2015, and one Ford Police Interceptor Utility fly car (68-05) for rapid response added in 2017. Dispatch is handled through the Westchester County Department of Emergency Services' 60-control with Emergency Medical Dispatch pre-arrival instructions since 2010. Advanced Life Support scope is delivered in coordination with the Town of Mamaroneck Ambulance District, formed in 1994, which employs the paramedics who staff MEMS units and handles patient billing inquiries.

The organization's revenue model is exclusively donation-based: MEMS does not bill patients directly, services are provided free of charge, and less than 10% of the approximately 1,500 patients treated annually contribute financially. The 100% volunteer, non-government structure means operating costs are underwritten by community fundraising, supplemented by the District's paramedic staffing and billing infrastructure. Marketing and recruitment are community-led, conducted primarily through the organization's Wix-hosted website, Facebook, and Instagram channels, with volunteer recruitment starting at age 16.
