Brentwood Legion Ambulance

What Brentwood Legion Ambulance does

Brentwood Legion Ambulance is a private, volunteer nonprofit emergency medical services organization headquartered at 29 Third Avenue, Brentwood, NY, and incorporated under New York State law. Founded in 1959 by William J.A. Seymour in partnership with the American Legion's Joseph Loeffler Post 1006, the organization provides 24/7 Basic Life Support (BLS) and Advanced Life Support (ALS) ambulance response across approximately 25 square miles of Brentwood, Edgewood, and North Bay Shore on Long Island. It operates with over 250 volunteer members and handles roughly 9,000+ emergency calls annually, transporting patients to South Shore University Hospital (Northwell Health), St. Catherine of Siena Medical Center, Good Samaritan Hospital (Catholic Health Services LI), and Stony Brook University Hospital.

The organization runs a dispatch center at 1600 5th Avenue, Bay Shore, and a maintenance facility at 16 Skidmore Road, Deer Park. Its service portfolio includes emergency ambulance response, patient transport, CPR training classes for the community, periodic blood drives, and the Explorer Post 325 youth program (ages 14-21) affiliated with the Boy Scouts of America. Technology is conventional EMS-grade equipment; there is no proprietary software, app, or AI/ML capability disclosed.

Revenue mechanics are mixed: the organization receives insurance reimbursements for ambulance transport through a third-party billing partner (Quick Med Claims) on a transaction-fee basis, supplemented by community donations accepted via Venmo and the organizational website. Services are provided to patients at no direct out-of-pocket cost at point of service. There are no public pricing tiers, no disclosed financials, no parent company, no funding rounds, and no commercial equity backing identified.
