Community Ambulance Service

Community Ambulance of Zanesville Ohio: Founded in August of 1994, CAS was our first joint venture partnership. CAS celebrates its 10th anniversary this month and is considered one of the premier EMS systems in the state of Ohio. CAS employs over 100 employees and is the only private EMS service for Muskingum County. Soon CAS may enter into yet another county contiguous with Muskingum County as its sole private provider. Like CEMS, CAS is currently deploying the same technology to provide high quality EMS and logistic management in the form of Mobile Data Terminals (MDT's), handheld field data collection devices, and Zoll 12-lead EKG monitors. CAS and its employees are some of the finest in the industry and a true pleasure to have within our family. We will be soon distributing a film made by the CAS staff relating to the history of CAS. Regional EMS: Established in January of 1996, REMS is a Joint Venture partnership with McLaren Health system in the Flint area. Regional EMS currently provides quality EMS services to two counties Genesee and Ingham. REMS employees over 80 employees and is looking to become the largest EMS provider in Genesee and Ingham Counties. At present REMS is looking for a new facility in Genesee County as they have outgrown their existing headquarters. The new modern facility is slated to house an LSTI satellite EMS training facility as well as a CEMTECH repair facility. HealthLink Medical Transportation: Established in July of 1997 as a Joint Venture partnership with Oakwood Health Care System. HealthLink is our fastest growing company employing more than 150 employees. HealthLink is now considered the premier EMS service in Western Wayne County. HealthLink not only provides high-level EMS services in their region but also has one of the largest courier services in Michigan providing services to the Oakwood system as well as their large outreach lab. HealthLink too has outgrown its headquarters and is in the process of designing a brand new larger facility that will also include a LSTI and CEMTECH satellite. This is an organization to watch for in a short period of time they have become leaders in their region and are now looking to the west for further expansion. CEMTECH: The newest member in our family, founded in 2003, CEMTECH is a repair facility within CEMS main headquarters. CEMTECH began offering mechanical repairs at discount rates to employees within the system. Recently CEMTECH added four new hoists in an expansion into what was once the warehouse facility on the east side of our headquarters and will have a staff of over twenty. CEMTECH is now doing the warranty work for Wheeled Coach and will soon be signing on new large fleet accounts. The above is an overview of our family growth. As a family, we have accomplished great things over the years and you all should be commended. As I said at the beginning, not all has been positive and we have had our challenges but with the great talent and dedication that most within this family have shown, we will prevail and become stronger. I hope we keep adding to this family for it great to watch it progress.
