Newark-Arcadia Emergency Medical Services

Newark-Arcadia Emergency Medical Services Newark-Arcadia Volunteer Ambulance, Inc. is an EMS agency, committed to the community. NWCH embraced the idea and joined forces to offer their support.

NAVA began as a community based volunteer agency on July 1, 1977 through the efforts of three nurses from the Newark Wayne Community Hospital (NWCH) who felt that the community needed access to pre-hospital emergency care. In 1979, NAVA began providing Basic Life Saving care which it continues to this day and is also paired with Wayne County ALS to provide Advanced Life Saving care to the town of

Newark and is neighboring towns. EMS has evolved in recent years from a largely volunteer based system to paid career staff. The call volume has increased from approximately 800 in 1977 to 2900 in 2021. In 2011, NAVA reorganized to better serve the community by forming the LLC, Newark Arcadia EMS to accommodate 24/7 paid staff who work hand in hand with volunteers. Paramedic Todd Blanchard was hired as Chief of Operations and coordinates the operational aspects of NAVA under the general direction of the NAVA Board of Directors.
