The Boyertown Community Ambulance Service is an Advanced Life Support (ALS) emergency medical service that has been serving the community since 1941. Boyertown Ambulance, designated as Company 525, operates out of one station which houses three ambulances. We provide primary emergency medical coverage for Boyertown Borough, Colebrookdale Township, and a large portion of both Earl and Douglass Townships. In addition, we provide immediate mutual aid to Gilbertsville Ambulance, Bally Ambulance, Oley Ambulance, and Western Berks EMS in the Boroughs of Bally and Bechtelsville, and portions of Pike, District, Washington, Douglass (Montgomery), Oley, and Amity Townships. Boyertown Ambulance is staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, by an advanced life support or basic life support 2-person crew. We also provide extra crews when needed for special events in the community, or when we are busy. In addition to the paid personnel, we offer opportunities for ride-alongs for EMT and Paramedic students, and any persons interested in a career in EMS. Boyertown also has a Venture Crew Post for 14 to 21 year olds who would like to learn and become certified in the EMS field. The Venture Crew Post (also known as Explorer Post) is a joint organization that operates within the Scouts of America. For more information, please contact us during office hours at (610)367-2330:
