“Our membership includes college-aged students through retirees, each extremely dedicated and ambitious,” Sweeney added. The Ambulance Corps responds to approximately 2,000 calls for assistance each year.
Springfield Ambulance Corps is the only remaining Basic Life Support ambulance service in Delaware County that is staffed completely by volunteers. The virtual announcement and plaque presentation were made recently at Covenant United Methodist Church in Springfield. In order to be worthy of this recognition, Springfield Ambulance Corps didn’t just meet the criteria, but rather, they excelled in every category.

Criteria to be considered for this award include contributing to development and growth of pre-hospital care within the community demonstrating a consistent pattern of timely and quality care working cooperatively with surrounding agencies and supporting professional development activities. In the Small Agency Division, the Pennsylvania EMS Agency of the Year is awarded to a service responding to fewer than 5,000 calls annually. “We donate our time and talents to provide exceptional pre-hospital care whenever we are called upon.” “Our members proudly serve Springfield Township, in addition to the surrounding area through mutual aid,” explained Springfield Ambulance Corps President Kelly Sweeney. For these reasons and many others, the all-volunteer Springfield Ambulance Corps was recently named the “Pennsylvania EMS Agency of the Year,” by the Pennsylvania Department of Health and the Pennsylvania Emergency Health Service Council. They’re caring, knowledgeable and professional. SPRINGFIELD - They’re there for us whenever needed.
