If you have an emergency, call 911.

Before today’s rigs, today’s tools, and today’s calls—there was the same mission: show up, stay ready, and take care of Greenwich. Proud to celebrate 40 Years of Service and counting.

Yesterday marked 40 years + 6 months to the day since Greenwich EMS first launched — and this Greenwich News article from July 16, 1986, captured that very first day.

From volunteer roots to a professionally staffed system, the mission has stayed the same: show up, care deeply, and serve Greenwich when it matters most.

Thank you to every EMT, paramedic, volunteer, and supporter who helped build (and still powers) Greenwich EMS. 💙🚑

For forty years, Greenwich Emergency Medical Service — known simply as GEMS — has been that promise in motion. Since 1986, we’ve responded to tens of thousands of calls—showing up in living rooms, on sidelines, in classrooms, on roadsides, and in those moments when minutes matter most.
In 2026, GEMS will mark our 40th anniversary with a year-long celebration—not focused on ourselves, but on the community we serve.
It all begins January 15, 2026, with community events leading up to our official anniversary on July 15. We invite all of Greenwich to join us in honoring our dedicated staff, our Board, our volunteers and partners, and the legacy of care that defines GEMS.

From our Greenwich EMS family to yours—wishing you peace, health, and a bright year ahead. 💛
