Seneca EMS provides highest level of prehospital care

By Councillor Presley Redeye

We are excited to announce the creation of a dedicated emergency medical services team for the Seneca Nation. Seneca EMS was created as a council initiative to offer both Cattaraugus and Allegany territories the highest level of pre hospital care during a medical emergency.

Our professionals seek to help people in their most trying times. With comprehensive training, they are prepared to overcome some of the most difficult challenges and situations placed before them while saving a life or bringing a new life into the world!

All of Seneca EMS ambulances are staffed with paramedics who are trained to the highest level of prehospital medical providers. This advanced level of prehospital care provides administration of medications, initiating intravenous lines, providing advanced airway management, resuscitate patients and help people who have suffered trauma.

Seneca EMS is staffing two paramedic level ambulances at the Cattaraugus Territory 24/7 prepared to respond to all requests for emergency medical services on the Cattaraugus Territory. Our ambulances are stationed out of Seneca Fire – Cattaraugus Territory and are ready to respond at a moment’s notice.

Seneca EMS is also staffing a paramedic level ambulance at the Allegany Territory 24/7 covering all requests for emergency medical services on the Allegany Territory. Our ambulance there is stationed out of Seneca Fire – Allegany Territory.

Thank you to everyone who has made it to possible to provide this service and we look forward to continuing to best serve our people.
