Mission Statement
To provide a valuable community service to the residents of the
Fredericktown Community by providing emergency medical care and
treatment for the ill and injured during a crisis, remembering
that we must always strive to provide the most up to date care and
treatment for the community who are the reason that we exist.
Welcome to the home page for Fredericktown EMS. Our website went
online in May of 2003 and we have underwent several changes since
that point. Our site is designed as both an informative and educational
portal for squad members, citizens, and other departments around
the world to benefit.
Our department serves the northwestern portion of Knox County, Ohio which includes the Village of Fredericktown, and townships of Berlin, Middlebury, Wayne, Pike, and a portion of Morris. The population that we serve is over 8500 residents in a rural setting that is experiencing a large amount of growth.
Our station, based in Fredericktown, operates two McCoy Miller Advanced Life Support ambulances equipped with some of the latest life saving technology. We have members on station between the hours of 7:00am to 5:00pm every day of the week. We have a staff of 32 members, of which 7 are Paramedics, 6 are Intermediates, and 19 are Basic EMTs. Our medical director is Doctor M. Bradley Smith of Fredericktown.
We have achieved the status of an Ohio Division of EMS Approved Continuing Education Site# 2355. This status allows us to host educational classes for our members and the members of surrounding departments allowing us to keep current with the ever changing medical treatments.
Dr. M Bradley Smith MD serves the EMS department as the Medical Director, and also serves as the Medical Director for the Continuing Education Site.
