Atchison County To Take Over EMS Service

(KAIR)--After months of discussion and planning, Atchison County will officially take over EMS service tomorrow at noon.

“The transition should be fairly seamless,” said Atchison County EMS Director Corey Scott.

“The public will probably not notice anything at all and there will be no gap in coverage.”

From 10:00 tomorrow morning until noon, they'll be switching all disposable supplies from the former owners, Techs Inc., to the county's supplies. Other than that, Scott said the county already owns all the ambulances and medical equipment inside the trucks.

“The service level will still be advanced life support,” Corey said.

He stressed that during this change-over, if you do need to call 911, there will be service available to you throughout the entire process.
