Overview

Mission

Our mission is to provide a local rural ambulance service to the area and train ambulance staff and other individuals in the area of safety and emergency services.

What it reported doing in 2022

Our rural ambulance service provided 127 medical runs in 2022 and trained both staff and non-staff individuals in the area of safety and emergency services.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and expenses are high relative to revenue.
