About Us

Tipton Ambulance Service has proudly served our community for over 50 years. What began as a volunteer effort responding in a hearse to meet the needs of a town without local healthcare has grown into a Conditional Critical Care Paramedic-level service. Today, we are a hybrid organization made up of both volunteer and career EMS professionals, with team members from all walks of life united by a commitment to providing exceptional care. Recently, Tipton Ambulance Service has begun evolving into Tipton EMS, as the Tipton Fire Department has become a state-licensed EMS first responder agency, assisting in emergencies in a non-transport capacity. Both first response and ambulance transport services are now coordinated under Tipton Emergency Medical Services. As we continue to grow, our mission remains the same—delivering compassionate, high-quality emergency medical care when our community needs it most.
