Our Story
To better care for the citizens of Newington, the Newington Volunteer Ambulance Corps was founded in 1969.
Originally staffed by a handful of people, a converted fire station, and used ambulance, the Corps has served the town of Newington to this day. Now referred to as Newington EMS, to better reflect the broad array of emergency medical services provided to the town, we continue to be staffed by dedicated volunteers who serve with “Pride through Excellence.”
The current roster of 50 people, 4 active ambulances and a staff services vehicle, all work out of our modern headquarters located behind the Market Square plaza on John Stewart Drive.
We are always looking for volunteers to serve as EMT’s as well as non-clinical support staff to help us carry out our life saving mission. For more information, head to our website www.newingtonems.com
