As we reflect on the life and words of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. today, those in EMS can say with a resounding yes- I am doing for others daily.

As we honor Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, we remember some of his words that reflect on our mission: “Life's most persistent and urgent question is, 'What are you doing for others?'”

Thoughts on this?

Citing a rise in lift assists, false alarms and other non-emergency responses, Waterford Township Fire Chief Matthew Nye is proposing an ordinance change that would charge elder care facilities.

Great training offered to EMS by MSU Vet College to care for injured K9 police dogs

The Capitol has added a full time paramedic to their campus emergency response team. As you may recall, in the 2025 legislative session an ambulance was called to the Capitol several times. With the volume of visitors and legislative members and their staff on the campus, it’s important to have this on-site EMS healthcare professional to begin care while an ambulance is en route.

We’re excited to support the 2026 Mississippi State Legislative Session by providing a full-time paramedic standby. Equipped with full Advanced Life Support equipment, we will be able to provide immediate care and coordinate directly with other responders. Pictured here is Mojo, proudly representing AMR and our ongoing commitment to service and readiness.
