serving the community, one patient at a time

The Port Jervis Volunteer Ambulance Corps, Inc. has been in existence for nearly 65 years, starting as The Port Jervis Lions Volunteer Ambulance Corp. on April 22, 1958. The corp. started with a converted hearse, donated by E. Arthur Gray. Today, the Port Jervis Volunteer Ambulance Corps, Inc., provides basic and advanced life support emergency medical services to not only the City of Port Jervis but also to the entire Town of Deerpark, the Borough of Matamoras and, when requested, to our neighbors in Sullivan County (NY), Sussex County (NJ), & Pike County (PA). We are staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.

The Port Jervis Volunteer Ambulance Corp, Inc. is a non-profit organization. We staff our ambulances with both paid and volunteer personnel. Our funding comes from insurance billing and the generous donations of our community. In our first year, the Port Jervis Lions Volunteer Ambulance answered 153 calls, now our ambulances are requested to respond to approximately 4,000 calls for help each year. We serve a population of over 15,000 residents and cover an area of over 70 square miles. Our service area is one of the largest in Orange County, New York.
