Emergency Care Plan

The Ambulance Service offers an Emergency Care Plan to citizens in the coverage area. At a cost of $60 per coverage year (July 1-June 30), subscribers are not billed for their ambulance runs. Enrollment is accepted in May and June prior to the coverage year. In the event, a subscriber uses the Ambulance Department for a medical emergency, the department bills the insurance company for the subscriber and the subscriber does not receive a bill. The Ambulance Department accepts what the insurance companies pay as payment in full and the subscriber is not responsible for any remaining balance. For more information, please contact Phil Gensterblum during normal business hours.

In Case of Emergency

If you have an emergency requiring an ambulance, please call 911. If you chose to drive to the station after business hours to have the paramedic evaluate your condition, there is a 911 phone at the front entrance of the Emergency Services Building. Simply pick up the receiver and the phone will automatically dial Ionia County Central Dispatch for you. Please, do not hang up the telephone without talking to the dispatcher. Dispatch will notify the medic on duty that you are out front and need assistance. Please follow the dispatcher's instructions until the medic arrives to assist you.
