A LITTLE BIT ABOUT US...

Diaz Memorial Ambulance Service, Inc. is the primary EMS provider for the Ulster County areas of Saugerties (Town and Village), Glenerie, Glasco, Mt. Marion, High Woods, Blue Mountain, Centerville, Malden-West Camp, and Saxton-Asbury-Katsbaan. We also cover a portion of the NYS Thruway. We handle approximately 3500 calls each year.
Our staff includes both career-oriented providers certified as EMT's and Paramedics. We have four ambulances and utilize a "fly car" that brings a Paramedic to a patient quickly, should transport vehicles and personnel be busy with other calls. We have Zoll X Series monitors equipped with 12 Lead and EtCO2 capability, Zoll Auto-Pulse (automatic CPR devices) and all up-to-date equipment.
Comfortable crew quarters include kitchen facilities, a separate bunk room, a computer and reading room with a computer and high-speed Internet access for laptops. We contract with Target Solutions to provide 100% online recertification for our part-time & full time employees.
A bit of history: Following the closure of Sawyer Ambulance in 1978, and a memorial donation from Mrs. Mandeville Diaz, a core group of members from Sawyer Ambulance formed Diaz Memorial Ambulance Service, Inc. on August 25th as a Not-for-Profit Corporation. We have grown to accommodate the Emergency Medical needs of those in the Town & Village of Saugerties with Basic Life Support and Advanced Life Support services. Diaz Ambulance also does standby duty at fires, provides EMS coverage for special events such as the many festivals held at Cantine Field such as the Hudson Valley Garlic Festival, and provides public education. We also provide the little extras such as lifting assistance that only comes from being a caring, dedicated service.
