Local Ambulances. Local Lives.

When you call 911, every second matters.

On Saturday, North Caddo voters will decide whether to renew the existing property tax that helps fund ambulance services provided by North Caddo Medical Center. This funding helps keep ambulances stationed in Vivian, Oil City, and Gilliam—ready when our families need them most. Vote Saturday, June 27th.

Did You Know?

The existing property tax that helps fund ambulance services is projected to roughly cover the yearly operating cost of one ambulance. However, NCMC currently operates three ambulances serving the community with units strategically stationed to ensure timely emergency response throughout the area.

Even with revenue generated through property taxes and ambulance service reimbursements, the cost of operating the emergency ambulance system exceeds the amount collected each year.
