Neighbors and Friends,

Pequea Valley Fire Department is proud to continue serving our community with fast, reliable, and compassionate emergency medical care. As we prepare for the year ahead, we are launching our 2026 Ambulance Subscription Program, and we invite you to consider enrolling.

Your subscription helps protect your household from unexpected ambulance costs while directly supporting the department. Subscribers receive coverage for medically-necessary ambulance transports provided by PVFD, depending on which tier you select, either reducing or eliminating out-of-pocket expenses that insurance may not cover.

Why Subscribe?

- Peace of mind during medical emergencies
- Reduced or no additional billing after insurance depending on tier selected
- Direct support for your community’s emergency responders
- Helps fund lifesaving equipment, training, and readiness

If you live in our response area for EMS, you should have recently received or will shortly receive your subscription form in the mail. Completing and returning it is quick and simple—and your support truly makes a difference.

Not sure if you live in our primary response area? Our EMS services cover all of Leacock and Paradise Township. Additionally, we cover the eastern portion of East Lampeter Township and a handful of addresses in the south west portion of Upper Leacock Township. Feel free to call the station if you are seeking clarification and one of our staff members will be able to confirm with you if you do or not.

**New this year - Pay Online!** Visit the link below to see how you can pay online!

Feel free to visit our website for further information about the program at https://www.pvfd40.com/content/subscription/

If you have any questions about the program, please contact us at the station at 717-768-3869 ext 1.

Thank you for allowing us to serve you. Together, we will keep Pequea Valley safe, prepared, and strong.

A proud moment for Pequea Valley Fire Department!

Our team recently assisted Lancaster EMS with the successful administration of prehospital whole blood — a first for Lancaster EMS.

During a medical emergency involving significant blood loss, our crews worked closely with Lancaster EMS to provide critical care in the field. Thanks to seamless teamwork and communication, the patient was safely transported to the hospital emergency department.

Shout out to our crew for having the early recognition of benefits that this new service could provide and requested the resource right away!

This milestone marks an exciting advancement in prehospital care within our region. We’re honored to support our partners at Lancaster EMS and Penn Medicine Lancaster General Health in bringing this lifesaving capability to our community — because when every second counts, collaboration saves lives.

We’re proud to share that Lancaster EMS has successfully completed its first prehospital whole blood administration! Our team provided critical care to a patient experiencing a medical event with significant blood loss. With guidance from Penn Medicine Lancaster General Health Medical Command, Dr. Brent, and assistance from Pequea Valley Ambulance, the administration went smoothly, and the patient was safely delivered to the Hospital emergency department. Carrying whole blood in partnership with Penn Medicine Lancaster General Health is a big step forward in the prehospital care provided to our community when every second counts.
