Southwest EMS Employee Directory

Emergency services are provided to and from HOSPITALS within Southwest EMS's service area. (Southwest EMS serves multiple counties in Arkansas and additional coverage include emergency transports to and from HOSPITALS within each service area). I understand that if my condition so indicates, Southwest EMS or the medical control physician may select... the hospital to which I will be taken. Southwest EMS agrees to provide medically necessary non-emergency services according to the terms of the contract. In addition to local non-emergency service, Southwest EMS has established a sixty (60) mile extended coverage radius around each base service area in which it operates. Services to and from hospitals within the extended coverage radius are provided subject to the terms of this agreement. In most cases, the extended coverage areas overlap allowing for greater coverage over longer distances. In areas where Southwest EMS may not serve an entire county, services shall be provided in Southwest EMS's recognized service area. I understand that emergencies and service area coverage have first priority and that all dispatching/staffing decisions are the sole right of Southwest EMS.Read More
