What is UREMS?

United Rapid Emergency Medical Services will deliver consistent, prompt, and clinically excellent care to all critically ill and injured patients within our district and community. It is our duty and responsibility to protect life, alleviate suffering, promote health, do no harm, and support equitable access to high-quality emergency medical care. Our goal is to make an impact on the critically ill and injured patients who have no medical aid or health insurance.
