ICFR Ambulance Inspections

ICFR has three ambulances certified for both Advanced Life Support and Basic Life Support.

ALS includes pain medications, respiratory medications, advanced airway management, 12 lead ECG analysis and many more patient care options.

BLS includes oxygen, splinting, bandaging, IV fluids, and some basic medications.

The inspections, performed by the county, ensure that all ICFR ambulances meet or exceed state equipment and supply requirements.

ICFR EMS staff have worked many hours to ensure our ambulances are ready to respond.

In addition to the medical equipment found on the ambulances each engine carries a complete BLS jump kit. Rescue 684, located at station four serving Deer Creek Mesa and White Deer Valley, carries complete ALS equipment.
