Shaler EMS was incorporated in 1992 as a non-profit 501c3 charitable organization. We are governed by a Board of Directors consisting of four voting members including our medical director and one ex-officio member who is the Chief of Police of Shaler Township.
Shaler EMS has 9 full time employees, including 4 Paramedics, 3 Emergency Medical Technicians, 1 Manager, and 1 Outreach Coordinator. Shaler EMS also relies on professional volunteers to staff its ambulances. Volunteers are one of Shaler EMS’ most valuable assets. There are over 20 volunteers, who contribute an average of 10,000 volunteer hours a year. Using both paid staff and volunteers, Shaler EMS operates three ALS (Advanced Life Support) ambulances.
