Dear Chili Residents,The Chili Fire Department announces the formation of the Chili Volunteer Ambulance Service, Inc. As a result, the residents of the Town of Chili will see a reduction of the ambulance tax and the elimination of burdensome bills for Advance Life Care Support. The Chili Fire Department has operated the volunteer ambulance service in the town of Chili since 1949. Over this time we have seen the population grow to 30,000 and requests for ambulance service grow to 2,000 calls per year. Today, our two basic life support ambulances are still staffed by a dedicated group of over fifty volunteers supplemented on weekdays with two paid staff. With this growth in Chili, there is increased demand for ambulance service including advanced life-care (ALS) services. Advanced Life Support is typically provided by paramedics from other agencies that provide advanced patient care on the Chili Ambulance. |
