🚑✨ Meet the Member Monday: Vikas! ✨🚑

V — voices in the night
I — I show up
K — knowing every second counts
A — across sirens and silence
S — still MVAC, five years in

Vikas has been a dedicated member of MVAC for over 5 years — and even as a former lieutenant, his commitment hasn’t skipped a beat. For him, it’s always been about the people, the purpose, and showing up when it counts. MVAC isn’t just an ambulance corps — it’s family. ❤️

You’ll still find Vikas around on weekends — sometimes on crew, sometimes with his notes out, turning the building into his study spot 📚. Whether it’s running calls or helping others learn, he brings the same focus, patience, and drive every time. He’s someone members look to — not just for answers, but for how to carry themselves on and off the truck.

Outside of MVAC, Vikas is deep in the grind of PA school 🩺📖, pushing toward a future in medicine. His time here has helped shape not just his clinical skills, but the mindset and resilience that carry into every next step.

👏 Thank you, Vikas, for your leadership, your dedication, and everything you continue to bring to MVAC — past and present. We’re lucky to have you!

April 28, 1979 — the day it all began.

Today, we honor the foundation of Mineola Volunteer Ambulance Corps and the incredible members—past and present—who have made MVAC what it is today.

For over four decades, it’s been your dedication, compassion, and commitment to service that has kept us strong and ready to answer every call. ❤️

This isn’t just our history — it’s our legacy. And it’s built by every single member who has worn the MVAC patch with pride.

👏 Thank you for being the heart of MVAC, then and now.
