Support the Lifeline of Our Community This Giving Tuesday

The Bennett County Ambulance Service is the vital lifeline providing time-sensitive, emergency medical care to residents across our expansive rural area. This National Day of Giving, we invite you to directly support the heroes who respond when every second counts.
Donations made to the Bennett County Hospital Foundation help ensure our first responders are equipped with state-of-the-art tools and resources.

Our Goal: A New Stryker Xpedition Stair Chair

This year, your generosity has a direct, tangible goal: funding the purchase of a new Stryker Xpedition powered stair chair. This essential piece of equipment uses a battery-powered track system to safely and efficiently transport patients up and down stairs without manual lifting, reducing the risk of injury to both patients and our dedicated EMTs.
Your contribution directly impacts the ambulance service's ability to provide immediate, high-quality care in moments of crisis—from accidents to critical medical emergencies.
