Adirondack - Appalachian Regional Emergency Medical Services Council
Welcome to our Web Site - Recognize the Blue and White Symbol?
It’s the Star of Life, the symbol of Emergency Medical Services (EMS). In the center is the Staff of Asclepius, the legendary Greek god of medicine. The "points" of the Star (beginning at twelve o’clock) represent the functions of EMS – Detection, Reporting, Response, On-Scene Care, Care in Transit, and Transfer to Definitive Care. The rest of the AAREMS logo depicts the boundaries and names of the counties we serve in New York State.
How Do You Like our Newly Redesigned Site? Let us know by sending us an email or giving us a call. Here's an invitation to all EMS agencies based in this Region - send us photos (by email) of your emergency vehicles or of agency activities, and we'll include them in our photo slide show (above). We look forward to hearing from you!
[Please note - it is AAREMS policy to withhold from publication any photo which would in any way violate patient privacy or confidentiality.]
