What we do
We respond to over 900 calls for service per year. The Cloverdale Health Care District Ambulance provides the only Paramedic level of patient care in Northern Sonoma County. We also provide services to parts of Southern Mendocino County. The services include pre-hospital critical care with transport to local and specialty hospitals based on the patient’s care requirements. Our unit's modern equipment includes 12 lead ECGs for acute heart attack recognition and treatment, Intraosseous IV capabilities for critical patient situations, numerous medications, and IV fluids for the relief of many illnesses and conditions. Our personnel can, when needed, talk directly to Emergency Medical Doctors directly from the scene. We do all this with local based personnel. Most of our team is from Cloverdale, born and raised. We employ seasoned professionals for certain positions, most with at least 20 years in pre-hospital medicine and management experience. With our team approach between our agency and specialty hospitals we can diagnose and treat heart attack, stroke, and trauma patients at the scene and obtain rapid, appropriate services in a timely fashion to save lives and quality of life
