Highland Fire-EMS is committed to providing the highest level of care to the City of Highland corporate city limits. Emergency Medical Services (EMS) responds to Emergency scene calls. The Emergency Medical Services (EMS) provides paramedic level of care for the community with a call volume of approximately 1700 requests for service per year. Highland Fire-EMS maintains a fleet of two Advanced Life Support (Paramedic) ambulances, one Basic Life Support Ambulance, and one Quick Response Vehicle, staffing one unit 24 hours a day 7 days a week with two in reserve.  However, an ambulance is just a vehicle full of equipment, and would be incomplete without the personnel who provide the care. Our Service is blessed with Paramedics and Basic EMT’s who dedicate their time and considerable talents to serve our community.
