Welcome To Suburban EMS
Suburban EMS has proudly served the community since 1953, originally founded as the Suburban Fire and Rescue Company with just two ambulances serving three municipalities. As our region has grown, so has our commitment. Today, Suburban EMS delivers advanced, dependable emergency medical services across 19 municipalities, spanning 232 square miles. We serve a population of more than 126,000 residents and welcome more than 1 million seasonal visitors each year. As a designated 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, we operate independently and are not affiliated with any municipal government.
