Dane County District One EMS

What Dane County District One EMS does

Dane County District One EMS is a governmental emergency medical services district headquartered at 316 W. Commercial St. in Mazomanie, Wisconsin, operating as a combination agency of paid and volunteer members. The district provides 24/7 emergency medical response and transport services staffed at the EMT level, with the capability to flex to AEMT-level care when staffing permits, serving approximately 6,000 residents across roughly 86 square miles of northwestern Dane County — including the Village of Mazomanie, Village of Black Earth, Town of Mazomanie, Town of Black Earth, and portions of Town of Berry and Town of Vermont. The agency's response architecture is multi-modal, comprising Rescue 28 (a 2019 Demers 4WD ambulance with Stryker Power-Load and advanced clinical equipment), Car 27 (a Quick Response Vehicle), and Jump Teams (personnel with personal-vehicle AEDs and medical bags for faster arrival on critical calls), all integrated with Dane County's Computer Aided Dispatch and the universal ELITE electronic charting system.

Clinical capabilities span basic and advanced life support, including cardiac monitoring with LIFEPAK 35 transmission to receiving hospitals, mechanical CPR via LUCAS, electronic auscultation via EKO 500, IV/IO access, advanced airway management, medication administration, and trauma care. The district is a member of MABAS Division 115, providing mutual aid to neighboring jurisdictions including Cross Plains, Mount Horeb, and Roxbury, with statewide and cross-state response capability for large-scale incidents. Medical direction is provided by Dr. Nick Genthe, who also serves with UW Health's Emergency Department and UW Med Flight.

The district's revenue model combines EMS transport billing (processed through third-party billing partner Cvikota MBS) with voluntary community donations accepted through the Zeffy platform. The organization does not disclose financial figures publicly, and funding is presumed to include public/tax sources consistent with its governmental status. Distribution is direct via 911 dispatch, with community outreach and paid event standbys representing secondary revenue channels. Strategic positioning emphasizes regulatory-defined exclusive service territory, regional mutual aid participation, and modern equipment investment, with an active shift toward recruiting paid full-time staff to supplement volunteer capacity.
